It was very good.

Tr: Ze haya tov meod.

Through no fault of our own, my bathing suit is missing.  I have a feeling it's in the United States having somehow sneaked into 20 Something's luggage.  Here's the deal. Bottom line? I don't like shopping for swim suits.  I find it unpleasant.  So, come to find out, I'm not waxing enthusiastic about buying a new swim suit here in Host Country where even the purchase of a cappuccino often involves a fair amount of awkward embarrassment.  College Chum told me to just swim in shorts and a tshirt, so that's one possible solution.  I only have 20 days left here and some of those days are going to involve swimming in that sea I like to describe as mediterranean. We've got a conundrum on our hands, my friends.  We've got a conundrum on our hands.

UPDATE, SEVERAL HOURS HENCE:  Went to the mall and bought a new swimsuit.  Not sure why you all have to make a big deal out of such things.  It really wasn't all that difficult.
