Had to catch these two on video while they played a card game. The game's rules are basically made up by Terence but similar to War. The cards were a complimentary gift during one of our flights on Malev airlines. No one has been able to beat him at his game yet! Nor has anyone else been able to figure out the ever-changing rules.
We finished the day by hitting the newly opened fresh pasta and pizza restaurant called Vapiano. On the company's main website it lists that in November 2007 they will be opening in Dulles Town Center (I put this here for Lisa). It is a really cool new style restaurant that is perfect for Budapest. They have real olive trees growing in the centers of some of the tables. It is huge and there are fresh basil and rosemary plants everywhere. We had to pick up pasta to send John Heisler in the hospital, per his request. We also picked him up 2 slices of Death by Chocolate cake that the nurses told him he couldn't eat for another 6 months. We had no idea chocolate was off druing chemo. We also picked up our dinner - 2 small pizzas and 2 pasta varieties. The restaurant's concept is that you choose 1 of approximately 8 types of pasta (ie fusilli, penne, spaghetti, etc) and tell them the sauce and they toss it together in a wok type pan right in front of you. They hand out cards (similar to a credit card) upon entry that you have to hand each station when ordering. The registers are at the door so when you leave you just hand your card to them which totals your purchases for payment. It was very fun and different.
Thanks for reading. I'm going to go out and play soccer with the family as I am the only one that is now inside. The day (5.26pm) is still beautiful and sunny so I'm going out to enjoy it some more. Especially since I don't have to cook!
