So, what have we been up to? Our days have been long and full and we promise to post more details soon. In the meantime, I wanted to quickly share with you John's latest adventure and obsession. Here at the University hotel (yes, we're still at the hotel...more on that later) we are just down the road from the physical education building which features an outdoor climbing wall. Over the last few nights we've noticed that a crowd gathers to climb under the lights and it always looks like a good time. Last night after dinner we walked over to watch and the friendly group invited us to have a try.
While Anthony happily drifted back to his climbing days at Cornell, John roped up as fast as he could. With no hesitation, he started up.
He made it about three quarters of the way up before looking around and deciding that was "high enough for now". The whole walk home was spent planning how high he would climb the next night and begging for rock-climbing lessons. This morning he told me he dreamed he was climbing. All in all, a fun adventure.
