Four Down, One to Go

Well, not exactly.  It's a little more than four down, a little less than one to go.  A waiter asked us the other night how long we would be here, and when we told him until the end of June, he said, "Wow, a long time!"  When we told him we had been here since the end of January, he said, "Wow a really long time!"  So, I guess it's a matter of perspective.  If we had just gotten here, the month of June would be a long time, but we didn't, so it's not.

However, we're going to enjoy these last few weeks as much as possible.  Tomorrow, we are off to Montenegro for ten days and then we come back to Ljubljana for our final two weeks.  Grandma Rose will be with us until the 19th...we're not sure why she didn't volunteer to stick around to the end of June to help us get home (actually, I don't think she ever gave us an answer...she just laughed when we brought it up).  It's been a lot of fun having her here, and she has definitely enjoyed the market, the street vendors, and the Sri Lankan jewelry store downstairs.

To make sure we keep our memories fresh, we have been taking pictures of some of our favorite people here.  Below are some from the market:  our bread and pasta vendors, and our fruit and vegetable vendors.  They have completely spoiled the kiddos, giving them donuts, cookies, strawberries, and carrots everytime we're there.  Grocery shopping back in St. Paul isn't going to be the same!
