I didn't sleep very well last night; I kept waking up and turning over. In the end, I think I got enough sleep, but it wasn't as continuous as it should have been. As a result, I got up late. Also, I had a bit of a headache and felt just generally a little achy, so I didn't go out for exercise at all.
I taught 7 units today: 9:00-10:30, 10:30-12:00, and 5:00-7:15. Interestingly, all three were individual students at level 5, the first in the Czech Republic, the second in Slovakia, and the third in France.
We tried out the falafel place at the Ice Park & Mall for the first time today. It was good, though not exceptional. Then, we treated ourselves to churros (yes! really!) from the shop right next door. In fact, they made them fresh just for us, and they were delicious. I thought it was a little funny when the guy asked me what רוטב rotev ("sauce", or "dressing") I wanted, but when I heard that one of the choices was maple, I went for it immediately (the other two were Nutella, a chocolate spread, and ריבת חלב ribat khalav, literally "milk jam" but usually translated (really to Spanish!) as dulce de leche). Anyway, the churros were delicious, and the maple syrup went nicely with them, too!
That whole section of the mall is quite interesting. There are: an ice cream shop, a pizza and pasta place, a burger place, a NY pizza place, the falafel stand, the churros stand, an east Asian and sushi place, and Cinnabon (in that order, if I'm remembering correctly!). Talk about mixing things up!
We talked again to David's sister in Ohio this afternoon. They had already gotten some snow from Sandy, and I suspect they're going to be in for some more nasty weather before it moves on out. Of course, Ohio will NOT be as hard-hit as Delaware, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.
This evening, we went on our usual walk, although I made a long detour to the local pharmacy while David waited on the bench in the green strip. It was hotter today and warmer out this evening, too.
