We arrived in Tunis and immediately went into quarantine. Sona and Aiden got stomach bugs and one day we had to ask Rico to find us a pharmacy to get medicine. Other than that, I was teleworking and getting used to the routine. We definitely need to learn French though. I’m trying to take classes every day time wiling. Rico, Kenton, and Intissar were great helping us and came by several times with food and toys for Aiden. On Friday, August 21 we moved to our new place in LAC 2. We like the place and it’s in a nice area. Walking distance to the Embassy, the lake, and several restaurants. We also found out about Bolt which is the Tunisian Uber and also Founa which delivers all types of merchandise including bottled water. Our UAB came on August 22 and we’ve started organizing our place. We went to a sports store called Decathlon to buy Aiden a basketball hoop and a ball dart board. On, August 29, we went to the DCM house for a cookout and met some new Embassy folks. Today, we went swimming and also had a nice breakfast at a Turkish restaurant. Enjoying it so far and hoping to keep on learning and making new memories. Aiden seems to enjoy ACST and he’s finished one week as a Kingergartner taking the bus and making friends. But he is hitting now which isn’t good. We’re planning a beach trip next week so I will write another blog about that.
