My list includes:
-preparing for my host sister's (Marianne) surprise party
-having the party 
-blowing up and popping numerous balloons
-making coffee
-driving to a world famous carnaval celebration in Binche, Belgium
-watching a father and his sun dress up in a ridiculously fantastic costume and being stuffed with straw
-eating pinapple cake and drinking champagne (well... as much as I could take at 5am, aka 2 sips)
-having the OPTION to eat oysters
-marching around Binche with an "army" of Gilles, collecting more and more as we walked through the neighborhood

I PROMISE pictures are coming!! :) In the meantime- here's the news report that was done while I was there (that's the house that I was at at 4am!)
