The last 3 months have been a blur, with back-to-back visitors (14 in total! 5 who stayed with us), a midnite trip to the emergency room for D (all better now), and a move to SH in early July. On top of work and class, it's been a blast but also kind of cra-zeeeeee.
We introduced you to our place in BJ and the "view" (of the snow mostly!)...here's the view from where we are staying in SH on a rare clear semi-unpolluted evening (D took the photo). BJ and SH are so different...both sprawling metros, but one very traditional, square and masculine, one more modern and feminine. Will leave you to figure out which is which.
We've been on the go so much that it's hard to know how to describe the latest transition...we miss friends in BJ heaps, and everyone at home. This transition has been harder than the one we made a year ago from the U.S. to BJ. But we're starting to meet friends here, and both of us having coworkers helps.
It's funny what makes us homesick...when I find D in a contemplative mood, 9 times out of 10 it's because he got a Costco email. hehe. I think we both get a little homesick after good skype convos with you all at home, especially when we talk to the wee wittle ones. Me, I miss clean air and water and mountains for hiking. Oh, and crisp green grapes. Eat some for me.
More soon.
Love! c&d
