Monday 10/27/2008

Things are progressing nicely at work. It looks like we will be working days again this week. Working nights starts next Monday night.

Before we left for lunch today we went out side for a minute and saw some of the workers taking their lunch break. It appears that they take a nap as part of their lunch break. Below is an example of some of them outside.


Chris arrived last night and worked his first day at work. We got back to the hotel about 7:15 or so and changed clothes and went out looking for a place to eat. Trying to find a place that takes credit cards can be an adventure in itself. We took Chris on a tour of the Pedestrian Walk tonight and ended up at a different version of The Greenery Cafe tonight. Since the menu is literally 50 pages, we figured that there was plenty of different items to eat on the menu. We also assumed they took credit cards since the one we went to last night did. I had some Thai Fried Rice and Japanese Seafood Soup.



We did experience something new tonight. It seems to be the norm that you see at least one new thing every day that you don't expect to see. Tonight it was in the bathroom in the restaurant. The picture below is the "toilet". As you can see it is very different from what you might expect.



After dinner we walked down to the River and showed Chris around and went to the White Swan. While walking around we were each offered a massage and was handed one of the cards below. We all busted out laughing and I could not resist taking a picture of it and putting it on here. I guess you were right Natalie, they do "Love You Long Time" over here.



Can't wait to the find out something new and interesting tomorrow. It is always an adventure.
