Here is a grab bag of pictures I've been waiting to post. Starting with New Year's Eve...

Volunteers from France, Belgium and Argentina who also live in Deva.

Having a party, that's right that's Taco Dip and homemade tortilla chips. The chocolate chip cookies weren't bad either. Obviously those empty wine bottles are just candle holders. (really, they are.)

Music and dancing...

and a concert, sort of thing in front of the Casa Cultural.

A rocket a guy lit here on the security fence. I'm sure he didn't mean for it to go right towards the stage. The guy operating the sound board appreciated it none too much.

Not bad for an almost totally random show of fireworks...

Ringing in the new year

with our dance moves.

Can-can 2008 be the year we hope it will be? (ok, that was lame even for me.)

Jan 1st 2008 we hiked up to the citadel despite some seriously inconvenient frost.

This is my "Join the Peace Corps" photo.

Deva after our second snow fall. I really want to take a nice picture like this where you can see our "Hollywood" style Deva sign.

Oh, poor baby. Bella convelesces on a hot water bottle in a pillowcase.

And still looks cute despite having to survive the agonies of the funnel collar.

After a full recovery she quickly resumes getting into mischief.

On a trip to the village Baru Mare, Laura experiments with soya tacos.

Further proof that Peace Corps volunteers will go to any lengths to find "Mexican" food.

My friend Dru and I in Hateg, outside Pizzeria El Sombrero. The pizza is good.
