Hey,
Just checked the weather forecast for Lisbon and I thought I would share the good news with you so you can be happy for us. Clear and 77, 86, 85, 83, and 82 is the prediction for the next 5 days. So boring...
The school director has rejected my request for a schedule change... Plan B is in operation as we speak.
We had an interesting week at school. A visiting special speaker with chapel everyday and he was great! Some of you know Ken Rudolph so you know what I am talking about. Great spiritual impact on some kids (and adults). Praying that it is not just a temporary thing. MK's are sometimes very needy kids.
We took Ken and his entourage to dinner (9 of us) at a small chicken grilling local cafe and did it all in Portuguese w/o help. It helped that grilled chicken is the only entre on the menu (except for the ubiquitous codfish that you have to be a 3rd or 4th generation Portuguese to tolerate). We had a great time and enjoyed the fellowship. In this small hole in the wall place, they grill chickens all day (mostly for take out) and they are great. Be sure that we take you there when you visit. We do have a Chili's here in Lisbon but what fun would that be? We have easily avoided McD's although it is the most popular food court place by far.
One thing that was really cool at the restaurant is that Kati volunteered to ask the waiter for more water...in Portuguese!!!
We are headed to a street market this AM
Got to go
Mike
