...Today was a great, relaxing day. I got to sleep in until 9:30 which was a treat since all last week I have been waking up at 7. Walking out into the living room, the view that awaits me was row after row of corn fields and farmhouses in the distance. I could get used to this.
My host family belongs to a gym/country club of sorts. We went to the pool, went in and dried off by working on our tans. Apparently, you cannot go in the pool without a swim cap. That totally worked in my favor since my hair still has some brown in it. Hooray! After a full day of lounging around, we came back and as I prepared for my first day of teaching tomorrow, my host mother made dinner. I sat down and ate...and it was good. I thought it was tuna and pasta like a tuna salad. Little did I know, I ate rabbit. And you know what? It was good. It reminded me of tuna so much I would have thought forever after I ate tuna today. I also had the best peas I have ever had in my life. I am going to have them tomorrow too! They were delicious! Peas. Who would have known? My host family asked me if I ever tried horse. My answer was no. I think they are going to get me some....I think I'll be ok as long as they don't tell me before what I am eating. Tomorrow is my host mother's birthday. She invited her mother, her sister, her sister-in-law, her brother, etc. to celebrate. I am nervous! Ah! What do I wear? I hope I can find a flower shop to get her flowers on the way home. Also, I hope I don't get lost on my way to work tomorrow. That would be the worst. Wish me luck!
