almost forgot

I had the wonderful opportunity as well tonight to drive on the wrong side of the road! That is, on the left side, NOT on the "right" side! Yes, Benita surprised me when we drove out from the petrol station(gas station) to go home because she said, "anna, would you like to drive home?" I secretly had prayed for this opportunity to arise on some ocasion! So here it was! I got to drive home! It was NOT as easy as I thought it would be! All of the cars are manuals here, so I thought I'd be fine with shifting because you still put the stick in the same places as you do at home, but you use your left hand, which makes a world of difference! It was like I was learning to drive all over again! I think I put Benita and Astrid into shock, even though I didn't crash or anything. So who knows if I'll be asked to do that again! I just need my practice, right? I've heard that I don't even need to get an international license to drive here, so I pretty much legal by now......
