We then spent a few hours walking around. Actually three of us walked around while JB found himself a seat in Barnes and Noble for a great reading day. He also made a stop at a wine store and William & Sonoma but otherwise just read.
For dinner, Tara took us to a fantastic restaurant called Chino Latino. It was amazing food and a place we would definitely plan to go back to. The menu changes on a daily basis and everything is served family style. It is a little pricey (about $25 a person for us) but you could definitely get less food than we did (we simply went off the waiter's recommendation) and get dinner for about $15 a person. If you are a Polar North amigo, you want to check this place out.
Dad, Wendi and Tara before dinner.
Tara not sure where she should begin with our jerk chicken platter

We sat right behind this long table which serves really large groups

Perhaps no one else noticed (but now it has been brought to your attention) how SMALL I look in the pic of us watching World Cup! My eye-level TV is not the same as that which Mr. Huisman and John are watching:) I was the odd-one out yesterday in the height respect. But it was a FANTASTIC day!! Thanks for including me. I'm so glad you liked the restaurant!
Well, JB was on an empty TV stand you know!
And thank YOU for including US at YOUR restaurant.
Well actually it is futbol in Spanish I believe? Spanish speaker Tara can you comment on this.
Also, while ten years ago soccer was not that popular in the U.S., it is becoming more and more popular. More kids actually start out playing it but then it seems to get replaced.
Read this article. It's hillarious:

John played from the time he was 12 until he graduate high school. We like it in our house!
Chino Latino! Sounds fun! :)
Wendi, it is SO hot today!
Les, I must be honest ... I still don't think this is very hot. I think this is very comfortable. Is that horrible to say?
No, I just posted that because I knew you wouldn't think it was hot. :) Seriously, Wen, it was 91 degrees today! :) I had something I was going to tell you, but I've forgotten...I'll call you later!
I saw it was 91 but there was a breeze. It still wasn't even near a Florida summer day ... the seatbelts weren't even hot. I actually just got your message ... but it's 9:15 now so I won't call. But yes, I would like to borrow your movie.
Yes, it is "fútbol" in Spanish. But I can't speak for other countries/languages :)

Bara is a man after my own heart! Go France!! Since my team, Argentina, was beat I want France to win. Tomorrow is the next game and even though Wendi is having a party at our house I will be sitting in front of the TV with ESPN on. Maybe a little bit of Wimbeldon, too.
Leslie, I am with you. It is too stinking hot! Temps in the 90's should be against the law.
