Miscellaneous pix 2

Here are a couple of miscellaneous shots that I had floating around.


arroz a la cubana

Lola had some emergency dental work that Errol had to do (Ina's bf). While we were waiting for her to finish, we snuck off to Greenbelt and Dulcinea for breakfast. Somehow this wasn't quite as good as I remembered. Passable but...


tapa queen

We were off to visit a client, who after we arrived informed us we only had 5 minutes as he was off to an emergency meeting someplace. We had a late lunch at a Tapa King restaurant as it was pretty much the only non-fast food restaurant we could find in time. I ordered my usual at this place, the Tapa Queen which is slightly sweet and spicy beef tapa served with egg and fried rice.


Yet another day (Saturday), we had to go to a client lab to do load testing in a lab. This means we have lots of people sit in a 40 - 50 computer lab and have them open and use our software all at the same time to see how long it takes to load the software on each computer, etc. Dino didn't ask details of where we were going so we ended up going to the wrong site (the one above where we had tapa for lunch). Instead it was completely at another place that took us almost an hour to get to.

School isn't in yet so the hallways are empty.

lunch

I was sent out to get lunch with a few of the boys: 7 buckets of chicken, 40+ servings of rice, 4 kinds of sides, dessert brownies for 28, 20 or 30 liters of water, 7 or 8 liters of soda, ice. Over US$100.


pullman haircut

Pullman will be heading to kindergarten in a couple of weeks. He already was fitted with his uniform, got his school supplies and is now getting what hopefully will be his regulation school haircut. After it was done, Dino expressed doubt that it was short enough--he may have to go back and get it fixed.
