Observations

1. It's about like summer in the south east here, just not as muggy. All the heat, but no body to my hair. Muggy has its advantages.
2. I didn't realize shower stalls came in sizes smaller than the one in my house. They do.
3. It's REALLY HARD to shave your legs in a shower that small.
4. Everyone here is really friendly. Like, really.
5. I didn't really believe all the hype about how dusty it is here. It really is dusty.
6. Mosquitoes here (like everything else?) are dust-colored, which makes them harder to see both in daylight and at night than the ones back home. Bastards. But so far, I've only seen one fly, and I had heard there would be gajillions, everywhere, all the time.
7. All in all, it's not as bad as I had expected. So far.
