Carnival


On Saturday February 13th we went to see Carnival. Every year the Maltese have a Carnival celebration. (I don't know why yet) The kids like to dress up in costumes and they have a parade with floats and marching bands. We've seen some very elaborate costumes. We spent most of the morning at Carnival and then headed back. We had lunch on the roof and we relaxed for awhile. In the evening Dad and Mom went out to eat and one of the students took us out to see the movie Shorts. We then ate at Pizza Hut.

On Sunday February 14th we had a Valentines party! We spent most of the morning decorating and getting ready. We had lunch and then Annika and Mom baked some delicious cupcakes. Finally the students came. Three students brought valentines and Annika and I handed out ours. Then we had dinner. After dinner I finally got enough students recruited for the "school play!" The students talked for awhile and then gradually left.

The rest of the week was slow but on Saturday night we went out to see the movie Invictus. It was actually pretty good. Then we went to a restaurant called Peppi's. They had really good food.

Yesterday was the normal Sunday walk and the students in flat 13 made dinner.
