Funny You Should Ask...

It was SO great to read everyone's comments and offers to send packages filled with goodys! Thank you! I WOULD love it! But, there's just one thing...I don't know my address. No, really. We're all settled into a little apartment here (I'll put pictures on the next post) that is actually pretty nice. It's a great location, right next to a big park, near lots of little shops and bakeries, and really close to the part of town called Old Town (and where the mall is!). HOWEVER, in Poland, everyone has to be registered to an address and, for whatever reason, our landlady won't register us here, but wants to do so at her home address. Whatever the reason, it is definitely on the side of shady. And, for us, we have to be registered in order to get our visas (which we have to have within 90 days or we'll have to leave the country every 90 days and re-enter under a new passport stamp). Our main supervisor in Virginia would rather we don't have to do that, and our landlady says she ABSOLUTELY cannot register us here, so it looks like we'll be moving sometime in the next 90 days. Sean (our supervisor here) says it's normal and this is just a taste of how things are done here in Poland. He and his wife, Lydia, are working on finding us a new flat, we don't have to worry about that part. We'll just have to be ready to move!
So, that's the big news for today! We had our first language class and learned about 20 different ways to say "hello" and "good bye". My opinion of language day one: I like it! It sounds crazy, but I kind of like the idea of learning a new language. I think it will be good for the ol' noggin...or make me even more crazy!
