From Zach:

We're all having a lot of fun here, but I miss Swarthmore a tiny bit. A lot is different from Swarthmore. It rains once a day here, and it's really windy. That's not a complaint, though. It's beautiful here. However, people off the streets have to wear protective raingear, as you can see. The palm trees bend farther than I thought, too. We have a grapefruit tree in our backyard, and we ate one all ready. it was pretty good, could have been better, though, cause it had actually fallen from the tree already. Also, we have eaten a lot of Korean and Thai and Japanese food. we finally had good, greasy, fat, American burgers and fries tonight.
We're trying to keep organized, which would probably be good for us. We have way too many closets and cabinets and drawers anyway, so.... We have been shopping and garage-sale browsing way too many times. Microwave, vacuum cleaner, tv (yay, 37" LG) and more minor stuff, like towels and cleaning stuff.
How are you guys doing back in Swarthmore?


From Abby:
Happy fourth of July! The palm trees are weird because when the wind blows one part sticks up straight while the other is going down. Also, did you know that coconuts are green at first? It is really really windy. we went to a lot of garage sales; me and Zachary play a lot of our DS; we got a tv but it does not work yet.
