<p> Good Morning everyone,</p><p>it is way too early - not even 6.00 hrs., but I cannot sleep anymore - just a few to many thought haunting me at night.</p><p>Zoe, just coffee for me, please.</p><p>I had a chat with the cook of this place and made him call my wife. 25 years ago, before she went into teaching, she had managed a place like that, with 3 cooks reporting to her as the boss. She was able to give him some clues on how to improve the quality of the food being served without exceeding the budget for it. The guy told me that they have to feed an "inmate" on $ 3 a day - and that just can´t be done. We both will talk to the manager to free up some more funds. I should mention that they collect $ 15 each day from us for the food - this is the amount my wife and are spending for the both of us. </p><p>My days here are really boring. The exercises I have to do keep me busy for 2 hours in the morning and that´s it. I have started to work on my personal "American Dream", collecting as much info as possible. I am confident that one fine day I will be in the same time zone ("Zeitzone) as most of you are in.</p><p><b>Ray </b>- that night shot of your layout is just fantastic! [bow]</p><p><b>Jim</b> - Keister? I had to look it up. It does translate into "Allerwertester", meaning "Your Honour"! [swg]</p><p><b>Bama </b>- those 4 weeks for Mikayla to arrive will pass in no time - I keep my fingers crossed for all of you!</p><p> </p><p>A good one to all of you! <br></p>
