First Spider

I was warned...they do have big spiders here!  As I was getting my bed ready, I spread out the sheets and there it was.  It did not look like a dangerous spider, rather it looked like a large garden spider, but I really don't know.  As you might imagine, I shook out all of the  sheets, but did not find any more "roommates."  Because it is Diwali, there are fireworks  going off everywhere.  It sounds like a war zone.  We'll see how much sleep I get.
