Just a Quick Update for the Week...

Just to let you know that Martha and I are back safe and sound from our awesome cultural trip that we were granted by the Peace Corps as a mid-training carrot. We will upload pics and news about it in about 2 weeks; when we will get access to the internet again. (In the mean-time, we find out our permanent placement site, meet our future supervisors/school directors, travel for a couple days to our sites, meet our future site host-families and have our mid-assessment language proficiency interviews, so we are very excited/nervous.)
We spent much of this weekend on a wide variety of comical "high-speed" transportation (i.e. did you know that cows like to congregate on high mountain bridges? Or that basic family station wagons do great off-road?) to and from Kazbegi; and the town and the hike was fantastic, minus a little rain and fog.

We will talk to all of you soon; and keep checking for a torrential post upload.
