Yesterday we saw Hair, a great musical. The show started at 7:30 pm in the Durham Performing Arts Center downtown.

When I got home from work I had lost my voice (I have a bit of a cold) but dinner was ready, Bulgarian musaka.

The show was great -- very energetic and fun, and with nice music. A good night out.

Today the Tabovi visited the Sarah P. Duke Gardens.

We're having a very good time. Their visit is also very good for my Bulgarian. I've learned about 60 new words since they arrived, including the word for (Durham) bull: бик.

Sasha's parents Milan and Nadia arrived today!

We went to pick them up at Charlotte airport, after making sure that the house is in immaculate shape.

It is great to see them again, and we had a very nice evening together. It's the first time they visit us in the States, so there is a lot to show them.

The university semester is getting to an end, and my French teacher, who is also a professor at a college in Raleigh, is leaving for France for the summer.

In the last lesson we had a great conversation about baking bread, so I learned some delicious vocabulary.

I may pick up French in a few weeks ago (there is a replacement teacher) but for now a break works well. Sasha's parents are arriving this weekend and I'll be concentrating on Bulgarian for a month.
