Wednesday

There was no wifi here at Transition House on Monday, so it was not possible to blog.

The last 3 days have been much the same as last week, apart from we are now well into our stride with floors and walls being tiled at an amazing pace, the doors are completed and 2 already hung, the others just waiting for tile cement to cure. Grouting continues at a pace as well, with John C now nicknamed 'the Green Man' after taking on a green hue from the tile grout.
Emlyn has been doing a sterling job cleaning down walls, chipping cement off floors for tiling and mixing tile cement. Igor has been catching up with the plastering whilst we have been doing the other work.















Yesterday evening we had  a break and went to the Opera to see 'The Barber of Seville', which was very good, particularly in the setting of Odessa Opera House. We were fortunate to get upgraded to seats in the 3rd row from the stage. 



We followed up with a pizza at a restaurant just down the road from the Opera House


Only two more days to go before we fly home, I'm sure that we will all have mixed feelings, looking forward to seeing family but sad to leave our friends over here.
