It was a barbeque, with grilled sausages (like kielbasa) and chicken. And the pastors were pouring the spirits! |
Pastor Marian (behind), his son Jakub (our chief translator!), and Matuš |

In addition to the grilled meats, we had apricots, veggies, salad, and bread - yum! |

Then on Wednesday evening, we were invited to a barbecue in the middle of a 2-day class trip to a cottage in a nearby mountain valley. It was with Katarina Joy's class, and Janka Elizabeth was the other chaperone, so we had fun with our two Slovak daughters as well.
The wonderful I.A5 class at their class trip in the cottage! Notice our new apparel - to be explained later. |
As usual, there was guitar playing and singing. It's so neat that this is typical of almost all the gatherings we attend here in Slovakia!! :-) |

Our students presented us with some very special personalized gifts. This is my new apron, hand decorated by Simona, and signed by my half of the class. I love it!!! |
Later in the afternoon, there was a H.S. staff party. It was fun to relax and enjoy being with our colleagues at the end of the school year for a while. |
Here's the other end of the table! :-) |

We had a surprise visitor --- who Tim finally figured out was Nad'a, dressed as an old woman, after a little initial confusion!! |
