2pm in Ciatici and 7am in FSM
It is another cold and rainy day. I woke up at 10am, and Hana and Antonela were fully awake at 6am. Antonela’s mother is constantly working for tonight party. Yes, Hana Katarina will be baptized at the church we got married. (HK is sleeping now…I guess she is also getting ready for the party as a baby.) I am having a black tea…which says Indian tea in Croatian.

Yesterday, we had a good time at Antonela’s cousins house in Zenica. Iruga, He is a husband of Antonela’s fathers brother. When was it I met brothers husbands of….? Here, the connections and pipes between families and friends are stronger than you can think of. Anyway, Iruga has three kids, Marina, Mariana, and Ivan. Marina speaks very good English, and Marriana does not speak well, very she understands very well. Both of them just started learning English at the public school in Zenica. Ivan, who is 8 years old, also likes English and can understand English fairly well. They all went to Sweden, and Denmark, and Iruga took her wife for 15 year wedding anniversary to Rome. Helena is a school teacher here, and she took all of her students to Barcelona as a school trip. Of course all of the countries
