After picking Amy up from the airpot we went out for sushi at our friend's restaurant. Since I was sans kids I got to try a bunch of different things and they were all YUMMY!!! I have seen pictures of their various foods online and one I really wanted to try was the ceviche. It was all the right kinds of salty, fishy, yummy goodness. Then I tried their new sushi burrito which I HIGHLY recommend. It's pretty much like a big sushi roll, and they're amazing. After we stuffed ourselves with yummy sushi we went back to our place and Amy took a nap. Poor girl, whenever she flies she leaves so late so I totally understood the need for a nap. So, we took the kids to open swim so that the house would at least be quiet. We kept them out as long as possible, and by the time we got home Amy was awake so that was good!
After that I made some dinner and than Amy and I got ready to go out on the town! We always say that we're gonna go out for drinks but whenever we are visiting we are running (lame!) but not this time! We had actually thought about doing a half together but we decided that it was time to just hang out and not run... and... it was the right decision by far.
We got all fancied up and hopped in the mini van! haha. Hardest part was knowing where to go. Since we came here when I wasn't in that scene I had no idea. We first stopped at Latitude 49 which is a micro brewery/restaurant here and it was good! It was packed because there was some sort of game going on but we just got a drink and talked. She tried this really dark drink that was good but it was really heavy. I got a nice cider which I had had before and it was just as yummy then as it was tonight! We had good talks but Amy is a whiskey gal and they didn't serve liquor there so we went on our merry way.
We ended up at Food Dance downtown which is a DELICIOUS place. I'm really glad that she was able to go there because I think all visitors should try it out. She got this fancy whiskey drink and I ordered a sangria. YUMMO. By that time light weight me was definitely feeling it so we ordered an appetizer to try and help out. Somewhere along the way we thought that getting cigars would be a good idea, however, we couldn't find any place that sold them, so we didn't get them. haha. Amy got wiley and decided that we should do a shot together... college style! haha. The server thought we were funny and brought us this yummy mango martini type shot. It was fancy and delicious!
Once we decided that we were good to drive we drove back home and hung with G for a bit before passing out. A fun but exhausting day :)
JVG
