Goodies

Greg's brother is here visiting us and seeing the sites. Of course, he brought us some goodies from back home but we discovered something. We didn't need him to bring things from the States. We took a little trip to the commissary today and found a never ending supply of goodies. It's good to have a family member that can get into the commissary here!
We bought this DVD player for $35!
Can't wait to fry this up tomorrow morning
Chase was really excited to find Goldfish since Uncle Danny forgot to bring them

Just a little taste of home... ok, maybe more than just a little taste.

Face Paint

Saturday there was a football match (soccer) between Egypt and Algeria to determine who will enter the World Cup next summer. There was a lot of excitement among the nationals here all day long. We were at McDonald's with friends and they had someone painting faces of anyone who wanted it. Since Chase's friend got 3 Egyptian flags painted on his face Chase decided to do the same. He was so proud of it that he didn't want to wash his face until his teachers saw it the next day at his hadonna (nursery). His teachers loved it and were happy to see that we were supporting Egypt.
