Christmas Market!






Well, Christmas is just around the corner. Here in Hungary they have a Christmas Market each year at this time. Vendors come and set up booths to sell their merchandise. Almost everything that is sold is hand made and very beautiful. There is lots of pottery and jewelry. Also there are food vendors who sell traditional foods such as stuffed cabbage, sausage, and many pastries. Enjoy.

December

Well, December is already here! Crazy, I have been here for 11 months now and feeling more and more settled in. It snowed here the other day and has been rather icy since. Today one of the missionary families had a Christmas open house for all of the teachers and their families. It was very enjoyable. Then I went to a friends house and watched the movie "Awakenings" with Robin Williams. What an incredible movie. I really recommend that you watch it. It is very thought provoking in regards to the value and quality of life and what is really valuable. But be ready to cry, it is very touching. Well, that's all for now, but more pictures soon.
