arizona

hi guys! this one is in english since there is hebrew here. i'm in my fifth night at jessica's grandpa magnificant house in tucson arizona. tomorrow we're getting up very early to drive six hours to the grand canyon. so far it has been a great holiday. entering the plane in chicago winter and getting down in the desert with over 30 degrees... (well, i'm lying a little bit, because the day before we left chicago was one the warmest ever for the season). The heat makes me feel so much more at home, and the atmosphere here is much more free and easy going then in chicago. still waiting for my chance to live in the dessert. the university of arizona doesn't look like a bad option.



We enjoy here the beautiful house, and we work (brought some studies with us), and travel around a little (take a look at the arizona specialty - thesauago cactuses), and eat well. Jessica's grandpa starts looking for excuses to get his first beer around 12 at noon ("well, i'm entitled for this beer, you know why? i'm a great fan of paul newman and he was a big beer drinker...") and at 5pm anounces the martini happy hour. we also spend some time with her uncle and his family, and it is feels great to have a family atmosphere and talk to people who are not students or professors.



the grand canyon and sadona, where we're spending our last night, should be among the most beautiful places on the planet, so wait for the photos. and now i gotta go to sleep.
