Day 3

Sorry- no pictures today. We tried going to a photo store to get a disc to put the photos on but they were closed to photograph a wedding party - maybe tomorrow.... We finally got our passports back and were able to go out and explore the city. We found a bakery and ordered peroskies- like good bread with mashed potato filling. Very good and cheap- $.44 to fill your belly. We were very happy. We had 2 visits with Krysta today. They still won’t let us put Krysta on the floor, so we take turns holding her. Maybe tomorrow... Anyway, she is happy and curious & not fussy at all. We got a little smiling from her and she made some sounds as she explored us and the toys. After the 2nd visit, we went with the Sarvers and ventured out for dinner and to walk around some more. We decided on Kamelot because the menu was in English. It didn’t help too much because the dishes have wierd names with no explanation. They do divide the menu into beef, chicken, pork, mutton, etc.. I had chicken with mushrooms and mash potatoes (thanks to Dina Holton for suggesting it). Mike had Beef Burgundy. Darren had the Autumn Feast and Crystal had Black Forest Schnitzel (again, thank you Dina for the recco). Everyone liked their food and the 4 of us ate for $26 American- not too shabby. And they accept MasterCard. *If you visit this restaurant, pay attention to the music. 1 song is reminisent of Meg Ryan in ‘When Harry Met Sally’ - the scene where she fakes it in the restaurant? Think of that, but with Muzak. We got a good giggle out of that.
Miss you all- more tomorrow and hopefully with pix.
