Hot as a lion!

Hi littlest cutie,

I laughed when I heard about your mollasas cookies, because one of my favorite students (who is a bit odd, it must be admitted), just poured mollasas all over his computer by accident. How did that happen, you might ask? I don't know. Just more proof that he's a funny weird person!

O.k. first for your questions. 1. It is indeed hot as a lion!! That's an excellent way to describe it. Today, our tomb day, was super duper hot, and we were spending the day climbing way deep down underground where it was even hotter (don't ask me why, you'd think it would be cooler underground). When the wind blew today it felt like a hairdryer! I'm sure that is exactly how the inside of a lion feels (though I hope I never find out). 2. The showers in Luxor are a BIG improvement over the ones at the dig house as they mostly stay the same temperature. Dada wouldn't like my shower so much because the showerhead slides down all the time, so that it's just right on top of my head. For Dada it'd be only showering on his chest! 3. The cafes are really nothing to get excited about compared to New York, but compared to the oasis they are wonderful. I can connect to the computer in a cafe called "snack time"opposite a really beautiful temple. The cafe has very little atmosphere, but it has wonderful milkshakes, and normally I don't care about milkshakes, but after so long in Egypt, they taste pretty darn good!! 4. I haven't seen any mummies lately, but we'll see loads of baboon mummies in a few days. Isn't that silly??

So, is it true that you and Dada are going into your school to talk about archaeology? That's so cool!! Are you studying archaeology in school? That's so fun!! And tell about what movies you made! Will you teach me how to make movies too?

Well, cutest girl, tomorrow I am going to the temple of a cow goddess who is famous for liking to dance a whole lot. So, if I see any dancing cows tomorrow, I will say hello for you!!!

I love you, dearest one. Send me your news. And I'll see you soon (only ten days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

love, love, love,

- E.
