My first morning

It's my first morning in Cape Town, and I could not ask for it to feel any more beautiful. The sun is pouring in, but it's not hot. The wind is nice and cool, dancing throughout the house. I slept like a baby last night, and at one point, I woke up in the middle of the night almost forgetting where I was. My roommate was the first to arrive at the house, and we have the only room with a shower - yeah! I could've slept for another day but my roommate woke up from the alarm clock in someone else's room. We need to get a clock. Last night, all of us went to dinner down the street at a really cute Mediterranean restaurant - I was just happy to not have airplane food. And my lambchops and french fries were delicious! The ketchup's pretty good here too.

Items I forgot at home:
- alarm clock
- shower shoes
- toothpaste, good 'ol American toothpaste

We have class in about 30 minutes, and everyone has been up and about. Some people are still recovering from jet lag. There are fresh mangoes everywhere from people's grocery store runs. The flowers smell so good. In the afternoon, Prof will take us to Table Mountain and the waterfront in the afternoon. Wee! Don't worry, I'll make the time to put up pictures and video clips soon!
