Dinner Appointment with President and Sister Christensen

We took one more holiday day today and got a few things done at home before venturing out this afternoon. We were able to get two batches of laundry done this morning, and we even cooked Sunday dinner and have it in the fridge ready for the weekend. We have found it is a good idea to cook Sunday's meal beforehand since Sunday tends to have a more crazy schedule. This week we may have visitors come for dinner as well, so we are prepared!

This afternoon we ventured out to find a different hair salon for Sister Oveson. Her last haircut was not as precise as she likes and this French shop came highly recommended from several of the senior sisters. We missed the shop on the first pass, but found it on the turn around. This shop is a bit more expensive, but they were very attentive to details.  We will have to see how her hair turns out tomorrow!

We can tell the holiday is about over as we see the roads full of traffic again. Shops and restaurants are slowly opening again, but there are still many closed for another day or two. Of course the ones that are closed are the businesses we intended to visit! Go figure.

We spent a couple of hours in our office this afternoon preparing for our Saturday institute class. It was till a holiday there, apparently, as the gate was closed and we had to have the guard let us into the building.

Tonight we arranged to go to dinner with President and Sister Christensen. We headed toward the mission home to meet them and faced very heavy traffic. Yep, traffic is back to overload. The cafe where we were planning to eat dinner was closed, but we found a good second option. We enjoyed the visit and good food at Sunrise Taco.

Our photo collage today is another group of odd things we see here. The little car is actually a Hundai "AtoZ".  We are not sure how many passenger are in the van (bus), but enough that they had to leave the back open. The moto taking a Tuk Tuk ride is amusing.  We have no idear what the red pole is, but there are always strange moto loads out there. Oh, and the little bags on the other moto are food items, and maybe even their beverage. No need to pay for entertainment, we just have to go for a ride and look around!
