日本語学校のあと、娘のお友達と一緒にアイスクリーム屋(正確にはフローズン・ヨーグルト屋)に。中学校のPTAに献金をしたら(ほぼ強制的な$50の献金)、お返し(?)にただ券を一枚くれたので。5人分買って、トッピングもいろいろつけたのに、「はい、7ドル35です。」といわれて、正直者(?)の私は、「そりゃあ、ちょっと少なすぎますよ。」といったら、どうやらこのおねえちゃん新米だったらしく、オーナーが出てきて計算しなおし、17ドル55になりました。おねえちゃん、がんばれ!
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.
やしの木の向こうは太平洋。11月にこの格好で野外でアイスクリームとは、、はたまた季節感のないところです。ちなみに、写っていないけどパパもちゃんといます。
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!
