it is so cold here. also, everyone talks about the temperature using celsius which makes it seem even colder in my mind. today, we went to an amusement park about 15 minutes away called Efteling. it's a winter themed theme park, and since there is still snow on the ground everything looked magical and beautiful. i would have appreciated all of this more if we had not been there in the cold from 11-5:30. talk about a longgggg day. since there was snow on the ground, many of the rides were shut down meaning we rode the "grandma" rides. my favorite (i have no idea how to spell it) ride was a boat ride through a middle eastern palace. i'm sure it told a story, but i couldn't figure it out. this amusement park is huge though, and we didn't see half of it. we also did a lot of sitting inside and talking because it was so cold today. they have an indoor ice skating rink that we went to. i'm a terrible skater, but thankfully others were as well.
for dinner tonight, some of my floormates (including one italian) made pasta for everyone. i need to make dinner one night...but i'm not quite sure what to make. we have no oven, grits, or cornmeal. that means southern cuisine is difficult to cook, ha.
