Awoke this morning to a punctual 8am wakeup call from Rony. He is such a cute kid – 12 yrs old, turning 13 next week. He reminded me about 5 times throughout the week about it and then said he would come to make sure I was awake. True to his word he was there at 8 on the nose, very unusual for a Romanian. Here, 8 generally means sometime around 9:30 or 10.
The game was a lot of fun. Susan, Nora, Rony, and Catalin (my little 12 yr old buddy, shown on the left in the pic of Rony's family) went to the game. About 3 tram rides and a walk later we were there. Afterwards two bus rides and more walking to get to Rony’s house. We arrived to find his Mom, Dad, and 4 siblings eating lunch in the one room they call home. His sister Dana who is 6 and also lives at the orphanage was there for the weekend. She is so cute.

After leaving Rony’s we walked to the Bucharest mall to look around and grab some lunch. Tons of great places and I am embarrassed to say we all opted for the easy route and went to McDonalds. Some hurt feelings when we got back to the house that Catalin had come to Mc Donalds, but I think all will be ok.
