It's TUESDAY, not Wednesday! And I bought a giraffe

I can hardly remember what day of the week it is because Friday and Saturdays are the weekend here and Sunday is a regular work day. Dave and I are constantly trying to think what day of the week it is. The ladies say it's the Friday/Saturday and Sunday/Monday thing and some people say they never get used to it. Further, Thursday afternoon is like Friday afternoon when people start behaving like it's the weekend.

Egypt also does not observe Daylight Savings time so every evening seems so much later than it is. When we arrived on September 1 it would get dark at 7 p.m. We noticed tonight that it was closer to 6:30. It should be winter outside with that kind of darkness!!

I went into a wonderful little shop today and got a giraffe. The owner is also the artist. I love that they deliver almost anything you want.

My new terrace art. I love it.

And I'm going back for an old wooden carousel horse. I think I'm going to buy the red one. I love to imagine all the little children riding on these horses.
