When I said Micea would arrive in a few hours, I was only off by a few hours.  I took a short nap at 12:00, awaking at 1:00 to accompany Roro to the Bus Terminal to pick up Mircea.  We were waiting for his call to let us know to come pick him up.  While we waited, I played my ukulele, we sang, and we chatted.  We were trying to decide the best option – I wanted to leave a note on the doorstep and drive to the bus terminal anyway since I saw that Mircea’s flight had landed properly.  Roro, however, said that this thing has happened many times in the past, and said it was best to wait.  At 3:00, she bid me go to bed since I had class in the morning- and no sooner had she said that than the doorbell rang.  So there was a short meeting, Mircea had a snack for starving…  and off to bed we went.

The class is very interesting – and has a very nice representation of the world within.  Of the 15 or so students, these places are represented: Tennessee/Kentucky, Utah, Florida, Mexico, Guatemala,  Romania, Iceland, England, Germany, Belgium, Australia, Kazakhstan, and the Philippines.  Quite the diverse group – all of which speak remarkable English.  I wrote down everybody’s name as a memory tool – and it seems to have worked out well!  Today’s lesson was an introduction and review of basic Physics to bring everybody to the same page with the technical language.  There are not many assignments, but there are 2 reports due at the end of class.

Class ended early, but a few of us waited around awhile to have some laptop troubles looked at by the IT department.  It was late when we left, but Mircea and I couldn’t drum up any particular interest from anyone, so we took off to rent bikes…  the bikes were not ready, so we will delay to tomorrow.  It appears we will go to a museum tomorrow after class!

It rained in the morning, but cleared up somewhat in the afternoon…  the first time I’ve seen blue sky while here!  It is supposed to rain tomorrow again… and then be nice for a bit.

My concern at this point is that my luggage has not yet arrived…  and the call down to the Keflavik airport was fruitless as I sat on hold for 10 minutes without talking to anybody.  So maybe nobody will notice me alternating shirts…
