Girls Night Out!!!

Friends that I have made here and I have decided that we need a ladies night out once a month! So all of us moms, and a few that are expecting, and a few that are just married are doing a GNO once a month and we are really enjoying our time together!  We love getting to talk about anything and everything instead of broken conversations because we are chasing after one of our children! So each month we are picking a different type of ethnic food to try!  The first one we went to was an authentic Mexican restaurant called, Mi Tierra!  My FAVORITE!! The food was so delicious! We were there on a night when they had an all-you-can-eat taco bar night!  So good!  Of course we had to end the night with churros and hot chocolate!
 Bottom left side of table is Fabiana (Brazil), and Gari Lynn (US-New York)
 Amy K. (US- Michigan yeah!!), and Cristiane (Brazil)
Ana Luisa (Mexico), Paola (Columbia), and Susan (Netherlands)
Maria (Finland), Me, and Isabel (Mexico)


The next GNO we went to a restaurant called Haiku, that served all kinds of Sushi!  Not my first pick...well who am I kidding or a pick at all...but it was DELICIOUS!! Oh course if you are in China, you just have to be brave and try everything at least once!  You may pay for it the next day with a serious case of throwing up or running to the toilet every 5 minutes but this time it was delicious and I didn't get sick at all!  Afterwards we went to a little restaurant for drinks and talking, so much fun!
 L to R: Susan (Netherlands), Elana (England), Amy M. (US-Minnesota)
 Paola (Mexico), Maria (Finland), Amy K. (US-Michigan yeah!!)
 Jane (New Zeeland), Miho (Japan), Isabel (Mexico)
And me and the girls again! If we get the entire group of girls together, because some obviously can't make it every time or some are traveling here and there at the time, we have around 25 girls!  So much fun getting to know each other, their life stories, their cultures and their beliefs!  So fun!!

Next month...Korean BBQ!!! Can't wait!
