The omnipresent gray skies and gray colored buildings was starting to get to us…… we decided to take another hike to see if we could find the flower market we had seen a few days back when we were in the car with Victor……. So after lunch (found a great little pizza place where we successfully ordered a cheese pizza with mushrooms and olives and two beers) we headed toward the hill….. ahhhhhhh….. the flowers were amazing. After much consideration and “stopping to smell the roses” we selected, Asiatic lilies, roses, tulips, freesia and iris (our favorite). Some for us and some for the girl’s room at the orphanage. And one individual rose for you know who!
They children had prepared a little performance for us. It was the first time we had seen the “boys” from the other part of the building…… Angela with a group of her “sisters” sang a sweet song while their music teacher played piano. Afterwards we went to the library to practice reading and played, of course, Uno!
We asked her what sorts of things she would like to do once in America. (suggesting soccer, piano and tennis) She asked if she could take Tai Kwon Do and Kick Boxing!!! We couldn’t stop laughing! Remember she doesn’t consider herself Asian! We shared with her some of our hobbies….. Papa likes to golf and Mama likes to cook. Pam told her that she wanted to her to be “open minded” and try new foods more than once when she is home. Pam mentioned that she is vegetarian but that she cooks many things. Angela said she is vegetarian too. She only eats chicken and sausage!!! :)
