Hello, again, people! I'm here at Mike's Aunt Rita and Uncle Muhammed's house. Yesterday we spent a long time flying here (7 hours!!) and now we're hanging around.
Rita and Muhammed are a lot of fun to be around. They love to talk and are a lot of fun to hang around. So, I'm kind of redundant.
Last night (11-12 here, 8-9 there), we were driving around FOREVER trying to find Bowie. Mike Sr. kept getting out of the car and asking for directions. Unfortunately, most of the people he spoke to had only a limited knowledge of the area. Or English.
We did, however, finally get here. Just a hint, don't go to the Taco Bell/KFC joint here. It took us twenty minutes to get through the line. And they ran out of the yummy chicken. And they gave us drumsticks that wouldn't satisfy a mouse. This is not quality service we're talking about here.
We slept a while. Like, seven hours. Luckily for me I was able to wake up at 8:15 and still feel nice and rested. Which, for the information of people at home, would be like waking up at 5:15. I fell asleep at about one, the Mikes at two. So we slept, but tomorrow is going to feel like torture, when we have to get up at, like, six. Which is like, three, at home.
Mike Sr. didn't get up until way late. But soon we'll be heading off to the conference. I'll tell you all about my roomate(s) when I meet her/them.
Write again soon,
God Bless,
Erienne

Hi! I finally got this figured out at the hotel! Glad you're having a good time. I think you should know that we've missed a turn or two ourselves with me behind the wheel of Debe's car, but we were never lost!
