Erik:

    Went to catholic mass in the morning. The music was great. Amazing. That was the first hour of the service was just singing. The kids danced down the aisle with the insence and all that was neat. The sermon (homali?) was just an angry priest yealling the same superficial nonsense over and over. Very strange, completely lacked any depth or meaning. So we left afterwards (it was about to be first communion for some kiddos, and it had been 2.5 hours already) we got the stink eye from one of the nuns in the back.
    For christmas dinner we ate with zach and tom. It was fun exchanging funny stories and interesting travel stuff with one another. We then walked to the take away place to get some ice cream. Zach had to go after we ate, so we said a fond fairwell. We wish him all the best while he is in jo-berg.
Steph and I watched Elf for our christmas movie. When we were headed down to bed, we ran into Leah and Will again! Chilled with them for a bit and then we headed off to bed.

Erik:
    Laundry and pool. The sun is finally out again and we can really enjoy it (cause we arent cycling) we wandered around town for a bit. Very fun. I still love this town. Leah and will convinced us to go on the sunset cruise with them. We were going to go to the Devils pool, which is a natural pool you can go to righ above the falls, but it closed TODAY and was already fully booked. :( that was super disappointing but that's life. We ended up having a great time.

Erik:

   Totally gave in today. On my way to get lunch for a stephanie with a cold, i ended up buying 2 necklaces for 20 pin, or 4 dollars. He started at 200 pin, and I was not having it, but I learned that if you put the merch in your hand at some point, you are not walking away without buying it. So I got him to drop it to 20 pin and throw in a second for "free". Haha. Lesson learned. I'll be more careful in the future.
