Tonight we\u2019re celebrating Mom\u2019s birthday. (I won\u2019t tell you how old she will be tomorrow.) We get to eat cake and ice cream! This is after a supper of couscous and tagine at Thami\u2019s. We planned on going to Scorpion du Desert, but it was too loud. We\u2019d forgotten that Saturday nights are music nights.<\/p>\n
We would have gone to Caf\u00e9 Clock, but we went there for breakfast. For a while, there was a leak coming from the floor above us. After our Cusco Catastrophe, we were immediately on edge, but it turns out it was \u201cjust water\u201d\u2014not cleaning solution as we had thought.<\/p>\n
After breakfast and working on pictures, we went to the Bata Museum which had lots of old clothes and paintings and rugs and locks and keys. It was in a building surrounding a garden. Once we were done there, we left to a larger garden, which was well-maintained. Dad tried to extract money from the ATM next to the man who sells snails, but it wasn\u2019t working, so we went down the street to another one. On the way up, we bought deep-fried, crispy, thin donuts, which were coated in sugar.<\/p>\n
Delicioso.<\/p>\n
