In planning, I knew I wanted to see Fantasmic! at Hollywood Studios. I also knew that I wanted to try and get preferred seating for Fantasmic! The easiest way I saw was to book a dining package that would get us preferred seating. This dining package did not cost us anything extra. We only had to use our dining plan credits that we would have used anyway for this meal. We got extra benefits for nothing extra! It was a great deal! We chose the eat at the Hollywood Brown Derby for our meal. When we arrived, we were served warm bread and we each ordered a drink. I got a peach drink that is pictured on the left and my dad ordered a strawberry tequila drink pictured on the left. They were both delicious and wonderful. They were also gorgeous! My dad and I both ordered the restaurant's signature cobb salad for our entree. I chose to get mine with chicken while my dad just got the plain cobb salad. This was the BEST cobb salad I have ever had. I don't think I can ever have a cobb salad that is as amazing as this cobb salad was! It was also GIANT. I could not finish all of it! We also had dessert in our meal. I had their grapefruit cake (pictured on the left) and my dad had a passionfruit cake/mousse thing. They were both extremely delicious. Mine was sweet, sour, and deliciously balanced with grapefruit flavor, white chocolate, and cocoa nibs. My dad's was fruity and exciting. This entire meal was wonderful and I would definitely do it again if and when I go back to Disney World.
We spent the rest of the afternoon riding different rides and seeing shows. We saw the Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular show, rode the Rock 'n Roller Coaster and rode the Hollywood Tower of Terror. We also saw the Frozen Sing Along show and were able to see the Muppets as well. It was so fun! Near the end of our evening we headed back for Fantasmic! See my next post for my thoughts on Fantasmic! in Disney World.

For our second day in Disney World, we started our day with the Early Morning Magic event at Hollywood Studios. The park opened at around 7am so we were leaving our resort quite early! When we got there, we were let into the park along with special wristbands that showed that we were a part of the event. The park itself was quite empty which made for a relaxed experience. This event included breakfast as well as several hours of exclusive access to the recently opened Toy Story Land. We chose to go get breakfast first as it was on the opposite side of the park from Toy Story Land so that we could spend as much time as possible exploring Toy Story Land. The breakfast included a hot entree as well as a continental breakfast spread. I had avocado toast and my dad had a southwest breakfast bowl. It was all quite delicious. After breakfast, we headed over to Toy Story Land to go on the new rides and to explore. The lines were extremely short so we were able to ride the new Slinky Dog roller coaster several times in a row as well as Toy Story Midway Mania and the Little Green Alien ride that would spin you around! It was time and money well spent! This event was not crowded at all and was very fun. It was definitely worth the extra money to have the low crowds and to be able to explore this exciting new land without any pressure to move quickly. We were also able to take a picture of us with the Toy Story Land Sign from a Photopass photographer without having to wait! It was so nice to go through this land without any lines and with just a few people. By the time we had left, the lines had over an hour long wait and the area was packed! I would definitely recommend this event to anyone looking for some low stress extra time in Toy Story Land.
After leaving Toy Story Land, we planned to spend the rest of the day in Hollywood Studios. In my next post, I will be talking about the amazing lunch we had and the excellent end we had to this day. I had planned a truly magical and exciting experience for us prior to us arriving in the park. We were eating at Cinderella's Royal Table! This restaurant is INSIDE the castle! We arrived at the castle and checked in. We were given a card with our party number on it and went into a small room where we waited with other families to meet Cinderella. Finally, our name was called and we were able to meet Cinderella and ascend the staircase into the castle. We were brought to our table and promptly served our drinks. We were also given a wand, a sword, and each a wishing star. We made wishes on those later in the meal but let's talk more about the food! It was wonderful! Here is my appetizer, entree, and dessert, as well as my dad's dessert. My appetizer consisted of a lovely seared scallop, lemon peas, and delicious mushrooms along with a gorgeous cream sauce. It was small but it had SO MUCH flavor! I really liked it! For my entree, I had chosen the fish of the day. It was a salmon on top of a bed of grains with veggies and a tomato sauce. I really enjoyed it and would definitely eat it again! (Please ignore the bit that I already had taken out of it! I was so excited to eat it!) My dessert (on the left) was a chocolate and raspberry mouse called The Clock Strikes Twelve. It was lovely! On the right is my dad's dessert which was a deconstructed berry cheesecake. It was also very delicious! We each got a wishing star in this meal. In between princesses coming and visiting our table and taking pictures with us, we were directed to make wishes upon our stars as an entire dining room. It was very fun! Below is a snapshot of the inside of the castle and from where we were sitting. It was quite cozy (read small) but it was comfortable and very nice. I am glad that I took the opportunity to eat here! My next Disney World post will be all about our experience at Early Morning Magic in Toy Story Land in Hollywood Studios! It was a joyous adventure!
The day before going to Disney World, my family and I went to a Seattle Mariner's game. It was a TON of fun! We were able to get wonderful seats near home plate and had such a great time! We even got to get our dose of garlic fries (we ate them so quickly I couldn't even get a picture)!
After sending our luggage off, we made our way to our gate a proceeded to wait until it was time for our flight to board. We had decided to splurge for this leg of our journey and fly first class. It was AMAZING! I had so much let room and I got to drink out of real glass cups! After this first part of our journey to Orlando, we had our very short layover! We climbed aboard the airport's shuttle and got to our gate just in time to board! No waiting necessary! In this first class experience, we got so much food! There was yogurt and granola, cinnamon bread, a frittata (of which there is no picture) and a smoothie! There was also mini water bottles all around and many many different snacks! We also each got a quilted blanket for the flight. It was so comfy! Our airline also provided entertainment screens to everyone instead of having a screen in the back of each seat. I was not the biggest fan of this model as the screens were not all charged and it was difficult to find a good place to set the screen in flight without it getting in your way. The flight though was very good! After disembarking the plane, we made our way to the tram to go to the ground transportation area where we walked to find Disney's Magical Express Kiosk. We scanned our magic bands with a lovely gentleman who made sure we had taken care of all of the things we needed to before directing us to the numbered lane to wait for our coach bus that would drop us off at our resort. After boarding the bus, we rode while the bus played videos on the screen about helpful Disney tips and fun animated shorts. The bus made one stop before our resort and then we had made it!! I'll be posting more about our resort in another post so please look forward to that!
We had a very fun event to go to this evening after we had gotten settled in our resort and by the time we had returned to our resort after the event, our luggage was waiting in our room for us! It was so convenient and caused no hassle! I have come to have a nice group of friends here! We get together almost every week to have either a get together or a game night. A few weeks ago, we had a nice night with a fun fire along with hot dogs, s'mores, and some fun outdoor games! I also had a really fun time hanging out with another friend to introduce them to wine! I enjoy wine and love sharing it with others. This friend and I had a really nice spread of cheese and other foods that paired really well. We found some good pairings and my friend found some wines that they might like! It was SUPER fun!!
A while ago, we had our school board appreciation event. Last year, we punned upon donuts for our appreciation. This year, we punned about fruit pizza! Take a look at the craft and at the actual fruit pizza we made as a team!
Last week, many of the staff members from school and I went to Sejong Village which is near the Gyeongbokgung palace in Seoul. We climbed up the mountain/hill in the area, saw many sights and went to several historical places in Seoul's history. We went to an art gallery/museum, the home of a famous Korean poet, a tiny secondhand bookstore, and ended our night with samgyeopsal or Korean barbeque. Here are some pictures that I took from that day! In my wanderings during one of the last weekends, I ended up at the first Starbucks in Korea. I thought that was kind of neat. I have now been to the first Starbucks in America and the first Starbucks in Korea. Just thought that was kind of fun!
Here's some of the glorious food that I have eaten lately and just neglected to post about. Did I mention that I LOVE food! This was a small part of the lunch that I had with my Korean friend's family. It is a traditional Korean meal that includes a ton of "banchan" or side dishes. There was boiled egg, soybean paste stew, bulgogi (seasoned beef), grilled fish, many vegetables and different kinds of noodles and fried, stir fried, and grilled things. There was soooooo much food! We also had this delicious tea after the meal. It was AMAZING! My badminton club at school is almost definitely better than most badminton clubs because when we get bored or feel lazy, we order in and make food! Some of the teachers in the club made bibim guksu or spicy mixed noodles. That's in the small white bowls. We also ordered in pizza with fries and spaghetti as well as pig's foot. The pig's foot was extremely delicious and not too chewy. It was perfect! The pizza was a shrimp pizza and it also had some cream cheese and sweet potato on it. It was quite delicious even though the description doesn't quite sound delicious (trust me it was!). This was such a good way to spend an afternoon! This last weekend, My friend and I went out to go see a park and we stumbled upon this small art street where all of the shops are inside of shipping containers! We were also hungry so we were looking for food and at the end of this street right across from the park was a busy restaurant inside another shipping container. We thought that that would be a nice place to stop and eat. So we did. And it was. I got a shrimp noodle soup that had shrimp, noodles, and boiled egg mixed in with chopped onions. I also got sparkling water (my love!). As per usual with this style of restaurant where it is more cafeteria style (you order at the counter and get your buzzer and then wait for them to call that your food is ready) the banchan (side dishes) were self serve. There was kimchi and another dish that I'm not sure what it was but it tasted good! Overall, this place was really nice and really delicious. This is one of my Korean food loves! Pat bingsu! This is basically shaved ice on crack! If you think of shaved ice, many people think of snow cones and the crunchy ice with neon syrups. Bingsu is more similar to Hawaiian shaved ice. The ice is actually shaved so that it is extremely thin and melts almost immediately in your mouth. There are also a million topping options for bingsu. This bingsu is pat bingsu because it has pat (pronouced pot) or sweet red beans in it. This bingsu in particular came from a bubble tea shop (Gong Cha) that I LOVE so it had the tapioca pearls in it as well as some shaved almonds and soybean powder and a slightly sweet sauce on top. This was definitely big enough to share so I'm glad I was with my friend to eat it! It was delicious and a wonderful decision on such a hot day! It has been cherry blossom season for a couple of weeks and so there are many different cherry blossom products. Starbucks has cherry blossom flavored and themed drinks and some stores have cherry blossom themed items as well. I saw this soda in the convenience store and thought that I had to at least try it. This is definitely something that I cannot get back home. So I bought it and tried it and didn't hate it. It kind of tasted like a mix between cherry, rose, and strawberry. It was carbonated so that was nice. Overall the taste was okay but I probably won't buy it again. This drink has a bit of a story to it. I went out walking to go to my favorite bubble tea shop near my apartment (Gong Cha). It's about a 15-20 minute walk and it was really hot so I was looking forward to my nice cool Gong Cha bubble tea. When I got to where it was, it was not there. The shop was closed! There was not another Gong Cha nearby so I had to sadly wander for a bit trying to find an alternative. I eventually ended up at Cafe Bene and splurged a little. At Gong Cha, I would usually spend about 4,000 Won or $3.50 on a good sized drink. I bought this fancy schmancy drink with mango sorbet and chunks (because I thought it would look pretty and taste really good and it did) for about 7,000 Won or $6.50. That was an expensive drink but I felt that I deserved it particularly after having walked all the way to the Gong Cha that no longer exists. This was my free tea from finishing the stamp tour at the street museum with my Korean friend's aunt! It was delicious! We also had this amazingly light, fluffy, and creamy cheesecake that this cafe makes in house every day. It was wonderful!
This last weekend, I spent time with the friend I usually hang out with but there was also a special treat in the form of my Korean friend's family! They invited me out for lunch on Sunday (there was way more food than is just in this picture!) and we also ended up going on this amazing stamp/scavenger hunt. Every time I am with my Korean friend's family I am awestruck by how generous and kind they are. They are always extremely kind and helpful. I find that whenever I am with them, it is just like being with family! I'm hoping to meet up with them again before I leave. I can't believe that I leave four weeks from tomorrow and my time at my school is finished three weeks from tomorrow!
Cherry blossom season is quite exciting here in Korea. About a week ago, the cherry blossoms bloomed and they are beautiful! I didn't really realize how quickly spring had come. One day, there were almost no flowers on the trees outside of my school and the next day: BAM Look at all of those flowers!! They are AMAZING. So, to celebrate the cherry blossoms, my friend and I went to Seokchon Lake Park which is near Lotte World, Lotte Tower, and the Lotte department store. This is a man made lake in front of the tower and Lotte world. Lotte Tower actually just opened about two weeks ago and these giant swans in the lake were commissioned for the opening of the tower. It is one of the tallest buildings in the world now. There were TONS of people at the park. It was kind of tough to navigate around but we bobbed and weaved our way around the lake. We ended up in several different places. There were vendors along the walkway selling different things. We bought fake cherry blossom clips to put in our hair and we also got our faces painted! it was glorious! We walked around for quite some time and eventually went to take a break at the mall/department store nearby. We got a late lunch (beef with beef broth and rice, green onion, and kimchi), walked around the ENTIRE mall/department store and came across a random fansigning event for the kpop group Highlight (formerly known as B2ST aka Beast). There were sooooo many people! Eventually, we made it back outside. It was quite dark but the cherry blossoms were lit up so nicely! There were areas lit up with regular lights and an entire section lit up with colors!! It was so pretty! At the end of the night, I was sad to go home but it was such a great day!
After visiting the palace, on Saturday, my friend and I set out to find the tea shop, Moon Bird Thinks Only of the Moon. I had found it online and had read reviews saying that it was fun and quirky. It was also really small. First, this place was a bit difficult to find even with Kakao Maps (a Korean equivalent to Google maps). We had to go down a main street, branch down a side street, branch down a side street on a side street, and eventually we ended up in the right place! The shop is very small but it is very unique. It is located in a traditional Korean hanok house. There are tons of writings and drawings on the walls from past guests. There are also many napkins that have been drawn on and put up around the shop. I actually drew my own picture on a napkin. I don't know if it will be put up or not but if it did that would be cool. Overall, it was a really chill and cute cafe. I'd love to go back a time or two before I leave! Post cafe adventure, my friend and I decided that we needed a bit more of a meal than just tea and some rice cakes. I have often heard that Coco Curry or Coco Ichibanya is a really good food chain to get Japanese curry. I really wanted to try this and there happened to be a Coco Curry really close to where the tea house was so we decided to go there for a lunch/dinner. There were several options for the protein to have with the curry. There was chicken cutlet, pork cutlet, and other kinds of proteins or even potato and other vegetables. There was also the option of changing the amount of rice to get with the curry. There was a small amount a regular amount and then larger amounts. Additionally, there were different levels of spice from 0-10. I got the pork cutlet curry with the standard amount of rice and a spice of 1. It was still pretty spicy but it was not overly spicy! I'm super happy with the choices that I made and it was delicious!! I would definitely go back to Coco Curry and try a different curry!
I decided to try a more hole in the wall place to get food yesterday. I decided that I wanted spicy rice cakes (ddukbokki), fried vegetables, squid, shrimp, and dumplings (twigim), and blood sausage (sundae pronounced "soon day"). I went to this place and could have ordered each of these things separately but I saw that they had sets of food that I could buy or a bunch of things together for a cheaper price. I decided to get the first set that had all of these things and I got a TON of food! I ended up having leftovers for the night so we'll see how good the sundae and ddukbokki are as leftovers but I ate up all of the twigim last night! It was all really delicious! What is pretty interesting and cool about the food that I got is that when they were putting it together, the sundae and ddukbokki were kind of vacuum sealed into their packages which was really nice and convenient for traveling back to my apartment. Once I got back, I just had to slit it open with a knife and I was able to just eat my food! It was so great! In all, I spent about $7.00 to be stuffed and have plenty leftover! I also dealt with a little of "I have no idea what you are asking me so I will just say 'ok' and hope that it turns out ok!" One of the employees was asking me a question about my food and I had no idea what they were saying so I just said OK and nothing bad happened so I guess I did ok! Here's a slideshow of all of the food and how much there was!A few days ago, I went to a bread/pastry shop recommended by one of the teachers at my school who lives in my neighborhood. It's called Jean Boulangerie. They have very large and supposedly very delicious pastries. You can see just how large some of these pastries are in the picture above! I decided that I wanted to try a few things. I got what I thought was Japanese Melonpan. It was almost the same but it had a funky melon and cream cheese filling. I ate the whole thing but I would not get it again. It wasn't bad but it wasn't really my cup of tea. I also got a giant croissant that is a pretty good croissant but it's nothing too special. Then there is the red bean/whipped cream bun. This bun is AMAZING!! It is a simple bread on the outside but the inside is filled with sweet red bean with nuts and a lot of slightly sweet whipped cream. It was so delicious! I would definitely get it again. It cost me 2,000 Won or about $1.78 and I would definitely go buy more!! Here are some more pictures of my bread from Jean Boulangerie. Not pictured: giant croissant the size of my face!Ok, so after going to the cat cafe, we decided to wander around Hongdae for a bit. We went along a very busy street and saw a lot of different performers out on the streets. There was a group of boys dancing and several pairs of people singing and playing instruments around the same area. It was really cool! I would love to go back and spend some time just chilling in that area. Eventually, we made our way to this really small ice cream shop that is famous for the fish shaped cones that the ice cream is in. We each got our own and it was magical! The cone is shaped like a fish and the ice cream really reminds me of frozen greek yogurt. It was really good! When you walk up to the shop, there are a bunch of premade fish cones sitting there waiting to be filled. The ice cream is dispensed from a soft serve machine and then a piece of pineapple on a stick is drenched in chocolate from a chocolate fountain and used to drizzle chocolate on top of the ice cream. There's also a surprise at the bottom of the cone, Custard! It was so delicious and I would definitely go back to it and get more as well as take others there!
After getting our ice cream, my friend and I started making our way towards a dog cafe called Bauhouse. I had just heard of this cafe when looking up cat cafes online and my friend thought that it sounded really fun so we decided to go take a look. It was located VERY close to the subway station that is just before the Hongdae station on line 2. So it's really close. The cafe itself has no admission fee but it is basically expected that patrons will buy a drink. There are a lot of different drinks from sodas and coffees to smoothies and teas. These drinks range from 7,000 Won (about $6.00) to about 8,500 Won (about $7.50). As with the cat cafe, you could also pay a little bit more to get some treats to give to the dogs. Once we got into the cafe, there were two areas to sit and play with dogs. There was an area with some smaller dogs and puppies and a room with larger and older dogs. The dogs have free reign over the area and can do basically whatever they like. All of the dogs were also very well behaved. My friend and I went into the area of the cafe with the larger and older dogs. The cafe was really nice and the staff was really good at quickly and efficiently cleaning up after the dogs. There was also a couple in the cafe who my friend and I thought were the owners of the cafe becuase they were playing with all of the dogs and knew all of the dogs' names as well as were very friendly with the staff. Overall, this was a really laid back place to hang out and basically chill with dogs. All of the dogs were wonderful and I would love to go back here as well as the cat cafe! Here are a bunch of pictures of the dog cafe!!! On Thursday, I went out to eat and decided to go to the same place that I have been going to for a while now. It's called Teacher Kim or Kim Sungsaeng. I got bulgogi dumplings and bulgogi kimbap. It was so good! After that, I happened to be walking past a street vendor who was selling these adorable red bean filled fish breads. It's basically fried batter with sweet red bean paste inside. It was only 1,000 Won for three of these. Such a good deal! Overall, I was stuffed and had a really pleasant night.
On Friday, the subject teachers and I went out for dinner in Itaewon (a region of Seoul). Itaewon is basically the area of Seoul where there are the most expats so we saw a lot of foreigners. We were there mainly to go to Jacoby Burger and try this enormous burger! It was amazing. We also had a beautiful view of Namsan Tower both when it was light and when it was dark and lit up! When then took a bit of a walk over to the more populated area of Itaewon and had more food and drinks! It was a fantastic night and a wonderful welcome party for the three of us who are new to the school. I would love to go back to Itaewon again and try even more of the delicious food that was there! I am so happy!! I was out walking the other day and I saw a restaurant that served naengmyeon. Naengmyeon is one of my most favorite Korean foods! It's a cold noodle soup type thing. This particular kind of naengmyeon is called mul naengmyeon or water naengmyeon. It has a broth that it comes in while bibim naengmyeon or mixed naengmyeon has no broth and has a spicy sauce with it. To eat the naengmyeon you are supposed to add some mustard and some vinegar. those are in the little bottles on that little tray. You also need to cut your noodles with the scissors because the noodles are REALLY long and chewy so you can't really bite them off. My meal also came with some bulgogi (seasoned beef) and some pickled radish. The naengmyeon also has some pickled radish, cucumber, sesame seeds, and a hard boiled egg! It's so good! Naengmyeon may sound weird but it is so delicious and it's one of my most favorite Korean dishes!! I'm so glad that I found a place that serves it nearby! There are a few more places that I've passed by that also serve naengmyeon in my neighborhood so I'll have to try them eventually but this was a good start! Also the amount of Korean that I know was able to serve me well in this place!
The restaurant was super casual! I went in and was basically told to seat myself and I just had to tell the shop employee shortly after coming in what I wanted to eat. There were only three options plus an option for dumplings. It's a very specialized restaurant which I would hope means that it's really good that those few things (it was from what I tasted)! The water and silverware were also self serve as per usual. It was so nice! Overall it was a great experience. This whole meal cost me a total of 6,500 won or about $5.68. It's a great deal for a good amount of food that filled me up! I also could have gotten some pork dumplings for about $2.70. I might just get some the next time I go! I wholeheartedly recommend Mul Naengmyeon! It's delicious and wonderful and fantastic particularly if it's kind of hot out but it's still really good when it's a little chilly. So on Sunday, I decided to go out to eat (again)! I went to the same place where I got the takeout Kimbap last weekend. This time, instead of Kimbap, I got bulgogi mandu (seasoned beef dumpling). It was quite good! It was also one of the few things on the menu that when I read it, I knew what it was! With the dumplings came some soup and some lightly pickled radishes. It was really good and I hope to go back to this place to try something new next time! This whole meal also only cost me 4,000 Won or about $3.50. It was a good size for just me! If I had wanted, I could have gone just outside of this shop and down the street a bit to get some ice cream from Baskin Robinns!
One thing that I've found really interesting about Korean restaurants is that the silverware is self-serve. A lot of the water is also self serve. The spoons, chopsticks, and napkins are all usually in a little slide out drawer attached to the table. All of utensils are inside so it's easy to get what you need and be on your way. There is often a water filter/cooler system and cups located in a container or shelf and you can just get water when you need it! It's really nice. I'm excited to maybe go back to this place at some point and try even more food! I can now confirm that a Whopper in Korea is the same as a Whopper in the US. Burger King has a lot of the same things as home :) One of the big differences though was the Coke. It was a little different. Not bad, it just had a little bit of a different taste. Overall, it was a little bit of America near my apartment. I also found a local street market! I saw a lot of different stalls with food and other things to buy. I also found a really local grocery store but I didn't go in. I might go explore there this weekend. I also want to build up some of my language skills to order from the different food stalls because a lot of the food smelled AMAZING!
This was my dinner tonight. I decided to be brave and go out to this place called hansot doshirak or hansot lunch box. I had found it on my map and thought that it would be interesting to try. I had also looked at their menu online and it looked like they had food that I wouldn't mind eating. I went to the shop and it was really small. Like REALLY small and all of the menu was in Korean. Luckily there were some signs with pictures so I was able to find a picture that looked good and read its Korean name. I decided to go with something that said "chicken" in the name. I figured that might be good! I went into the shop and successfully ordered my food! In Korean! By no means was my Korean great but I got food and the lady that took my order understood me (I'm assuming since I got food) so I'm happy. The food was a bit spicy but it was good!
If you want to read what all of the food was, click on the picture with the food and I will have a description there. :) I went on a bit of a short adventure today! I had a mission to go buy some indoor shoes because in the school we are supposed to change our shoes so that we keep the inside of the school clean. I went to the Japanese chain store Daiso and after a bit of trouble finding the actual store and needing to use Google Translate a couple of times, I found it! I accomplished my mission in buying indoor shoes and I found a cute pair of socks! To give myself a bit of a reward, I went to a bubble tea shop called Gong Cha. I had heard really good things online about Gong Cha and they were not wrong!
Gong Cha is available in Asia and only a few parts of the United States. I think it originated in Taiwan and it is supposed to be one of the best chain stores for bubble tea. The internet was not wrong! It was a bit scary going into the shop where there was no one else except the two people working behind the counter. Luckily the menu had a bit of English and I could read a bit of the Korean on the menu. I had also looked up kind of how Gong Cha works when ordering. I picked my size, tea/drink base, pearls, sugar level, and ice level. The workers behind the counter were very helpful and very understanding when it came to my inability to speak Korean very well. I can kind of say, "excuse me," "sorry," "yes," and "no" but that did not help me much in ordering a drink! I had seen on the internet that the iced black tea drink with 30% sugar and the tapioca pearls was good so I decided that I would get that! It was delicious! I really enjoyed it and it was a wonderful treat! I also felt really accomplished in having ordered something in a Korean shop all by myself! I hope to go back and maybe try a different kind of tea or drink base. I think it is strawberry season here as I keep seeing lots of pictures of strawberry themed drinks and pastries so I might try something strawberry soon! Overall, this was a successful adventure and I found several other places that I want to go to and shop and a few places where I want to go get food! We'll see how that goes! |
