Don't be so CRABBY! hehehe
So, it's a friday night ritual to go have BBQ at this restaurant called Galby's. It is pretty much attached to our apartment block so it's easy, good, and foreigner central! Our tables get so filled with food we have to layer the extras on stools beside us! It's sooo good and you cook all the food on the table on the BBQ. The workers always come and change our bbq as it gets dirty from the meat, veggies and potatoes. They have the hot coals to heat it outside in an open fire pit waiting to be used by customers. And the writing on the walls? A classic at Galby's....I have yet to sign my name. A whole bunch of us got together and it was a great opportunity for a pic. From left to right there's Ricky (the guy I replaced), Sam (who I work wth), Fritz, Emma (who I work with), Mike, Erin, Monique, Mike and Richard! They are a great group of people and have been so welcoming. I think I'll make some good friends while I'm here.
This is a picture of the crab tank outside the restaurant. Sorry the pics aren't in order.....they never end up in order even of I try. So, when someone orders one, they head ouside to catch their dinner in huge nets. Atleast you know your dinner is fresh! Poor guys all in there fighting for their lives *L*
So, Monique and I went grocery shopping on Saturday and headed out to E-mart, which bought out Wal-Mart (can u believe that?!) I'm kinda obsessed with the escalators with no stairs that hold your cart in place and take u up to different floors. Everything here is built up as there's not too much room. There's tonnes of floors and coming down is even better cause there's just ramps with curbs at the bottom of each if you let your cart go by accident *L* What a workout it is!
So, dad, this pic is officially for you! I got down by these big suckers, held my breath and got a picture taken. Hope u like it!! hehehehe
Taking pictures around here when you're a foreigner is just too funny. People walk past you thinking you are NUTS because you are taking pictures of the stupidest things! The look on a guys face as Monique was takin a picture of me with the crabs was priceless. He couldn't understand why I would want a picture of that, as seafood in tanks outside of restaurants is sooooo common here.
And the picture in E-mart was pretty good also....people were pointing and laughing at us!
