Getting to know Liz, one of the American team members here, at Ginger Ale, a British/Romanian restaurant that incidentally does not sell ginger ale.

Entrance to The Metropolitan, the biggest and most important Romanian Orthodox church in the region. No tours today. Under construction. As was every other major tourist attraction in the city.

When looking into a cannon, always make sure you're wearing eye protection.

Guess who! Bonus points if you get them all right.

Thea was instantly surrounded by adoring fans, including Nirvana, our token New Zealander.

Erin and the kids skipped the country before we could get a decent photo, but we managed to catch Dave. Dave is the pastor/elder of the international church here.

With Trevor and Christina (and baby!)

Baptism. Delighted to see these three identify with Christ in this way.

So happy to see the smiling faces! You all look great! Neat and fun pictures! Looks like you have made many acquaintances there.

PS ~ I'm guessing yours have the painted nails because of the dark jeans... but don't think I could make a good guess on the others... lol.

I second Kris's guess as to the painted toenails...and protest that Thea was not surrounded by adoring fans, but rather depressed medical students, for cryin' out loud! lol
