After the Japanese School, we enjoyed a little excursion to an ice cream (actually, it's frozen yogurt) shop with our daughter's friend. We donated "strongly recommended donation of $50" to the middle school PTA, and they sent us a thank you note along with a free cup coupon. We bought 5 cups along with lots of toppings, and the young girl at counter said, "It's $7.35." A honest part of me told her that it was too little, since we ordered 5 cups for three dollar something each. She was a trainee maybe, and the owner came out and recalculated. We paid $17.55 after all.

Beyond the line of palm trees afar is Pacific Ocean. I cannot believe we were eating ice cream outside in T-shirts in November! No sense of seasons whatsoever! The pictures do not show daddy but he was with us!
