What? A place called Roman Gardens, and there are no Romans anywhere?

9/15/08
hey dad!
haha so you say "dunaújváros" like this:
duna új város
doo-nah oo-ee va-roh-sh (the a is like in cat..."
and yes it means just what you found on the internet [new city on the danube or river]:) haha way to be :)

haha and no, there is no roman stuff anywhere near this city... it is just a "garden" of ten stories... there are tons of them, there is also a weird statue park there that has some weird statues or metal art... it is cool though, when i find a computer that i can send pix from, i will.

Mordor is the big paper factory, but there is an even bigger tire one on the other side of the city... a few days ago, it let out this big red and black puff that looked like blood and smoke mixed... we were amazed! but i guess it has to be done... and also when the wind is blowing or there is a storm, they pump out even more!

the city is coming along, there is a lot of work to do and i am excited to get it started! really want to find some people to teach, becasue the others that were here only had old people to teach, and one thing with old people is that they will let anyone in that will talk to them... so... they don't really go anywhere like progressionwise... so it is a bummer...

i like it here though and i hope to get things moving again.

well, time has been flying! i have been out for over 11 months! and we figured out that if i go home the early transfer, i would be done in 1 year and one day from now... but i don't know when i will go home, it is up to president.

on p-days we get to go and sight see and whip and such like that :) so its not too bad.
sorry this weeks is short, i don't hav etoo much time... but i love ya tons!!!
