7/15 - Keep to the Left!

After a long day of touring and a lot of sleeping we had a lazy Sunday today – everything but our campus staple (Café Espresso) was closed, so we hung out there and enjoyed some A/C, some MTV, and a mocha frappe. Houman put the wedding trip up to a vote and when we found out that it would basically be a receiving line of thousands, we opted not to make the hour and a half drive to Nicosia. I was bummed not to take part, but it was probably the best decision. Rather than waste our showers, we all decided to get dressed anyway and host our own party- college dorm style. Nadia and I decided to take a trip to the market in Houman's car. The left handed stick shift was not too much a problem for her, but I did have to politely suggest that she not drive on the right side of the road for our safety. We definitely took the long way and pulled ourselves over when a cop appeared (just in case) but we made it back in one piece and I am proud to say that I won my first game of Beirut in 5 years and represented Valpo as only a true Crusader could.
