Dinner and (Aperi)Cranium

Last night we had a seriously fantastic homemade dinner at Andrea and Lea's apartment. It was the first real home-meal we've had since we've gotten here (somehow picked up a penchant for breaded chicken things...). It was really great to get some non-sightseeing, non-touristy, non-visitor-of-the-country hang out time. I've found on this trip that its kind of relieving to spend time with people of your own nationality when traveling abroad. It was especially nice yesterday as I was feeling my very first bout (in my entire life) of homesickness. At least I think it was homesickness. I guess I wouldn't really know. Anyway. Played Cranium where I got to mold play-doh into the shape of a dolphin, hum a song that I really didn't know the tune to (Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head... seriously, humming random songs is harder than you think), and try to guess what unit of measurement was used to build Noah's Ark (no one got that one; we had guesses of "hands", "animals", and "stones". All I could come up with was "something sort of like nautical miles").

Today was St. Peters. Obviously took a million photos as that place kind of never ends. But we'll save that for next post.
