Today we learned a new skill: taking elevations! It's all of the fun it sounds like and more. Actually though, it was pretty cool and involved playing with some fun and exciting tools. After we got it completely level, Tyler and I took turns looking through the viewfinder thing at the pole Jon was holding and we figured out the elevations of a few of the structures by the bath.

After that, I began on my task of scanning and archiving a bunch of old negatives of coins into the computer. When it was time for us to skedaddle, we went to the store to pick up ingredients for our first-ever fully self-prepared meal. Quite a landmark achievement for us. We decided to repay Anastasia for all of the delicious foods she has cooked us in our time here by cooking for her as well. Katie and Brittany did most of the work preparing the kebobs. They were quite impressive

However, when it came time to grill, Anastasia saw the tiny grill-like thing we had bought at the supermarket and put her foot down. Instead, she pulled out her Greek-style grill and bag of charcoal, and we lit 'er up.

The food was delicious, and we even managed to impress Anastasia (I think, at least...)
