Nothing Beats A Parade

The opening parade allowed watching people in very heavy and hot clothing on a warm July day.  Moldovans stil don't have the concepts of "period" and "authentic" down, but it's all good.

Nearly Two

My schedule might make this slow going, but I've managed to square off one more rectangle and get almost to the edge of the second row.

Lookal Asador

This is one of our favorite restaurants in Luanda because it reminds us of somewhere else.  It's also got good provolera.  We went with someone else from the embassy and had a pretty good meal. We also got a view of the ocean included in the price.










More People Watching

There were a lot of people to watch at the Medieval Festival.  So many, in fact, that one of the local TV stations launched a drone to watch them.

Second Striping

I had extra red thread and no where to use it on the first side, so the second's started.

I Hate Confetti

More little scattered stitches and the spade of the tail's done.  Accomplishment!

German Airport Asian Food

 This meal was after we took a bit of a nap at the Frankfurt airport after having gotten exhausted downtown.  We still had a few hours before the plane.  The food tasted pretty good, but wasn't truly spicy.  What do you expect from Germany?  Anyway, I had a quasi-thai soup and Andreas had fried rice.  The restaurant had nice observation windows on the field.
