-the first is of a thermos that is used to transport hot water from the hot water tank on the first floor
-the second is the hot water tank where we get the hot water to fill the thermos so we can wash the dishes in hot water.
Our drinking water is brought upstairs (we live on the 2nd floor) by the lady manager.
Some people from the university came to visit us at our apartment to drop off material that needs to be covered in class. The couple standing beside us (Blakes) live in the same building and are teaching here as well. We are told the three red balls in the background (top right hand corner) were used to send signals to the ships in the sea.

Traveling around we have noticed there are a lot of Buicks here and the only other GM product we have seen are a couple of Cadillacs. All of the taxis are Volkswagons. We passed a local beach and saw a ski boat and a few wave runners.
The campus we live on (and where Pat will teach at) is older and smaller. Pat has a short 5 minute walk but 6 flights of stairs to climb to get to her classes. We saw the newest campus yesterday and it was very nice. I (Burton) have classes there 2 days a week and will have to catch a bus at 7:00 AM to get there by 7:50 AM for my 8:00 AM class.
Oh, and I was able to find one of my favourite treats here...OREO cookies.....yum....
