Starbucks, Subway, and AMERICAN FOOD

Tuesday, June 17, 2014

We had Starbucks for breakfast. We couldn't do another day at the buffet. I had a biscuit with no butter. I asked for jelly and they offered me caramel or chocolate syrup. I just smiled and shook my head no. I also had an iced coffee. Ah, finally something from home. Wait, wait a minute. They only have regular milk and skim milk. No cream? Great. Such a good way to cut calories... and lack of taste. I do like their sugar here though. It's liquid sugar! I am stocking up on this to bring back home.

Zach had an Iced Chai and a bagel sandwich. It actually looked pretty good. I saw all of the melted cheese just oozing off. Oh wait, that was egg yolk. He was barely able to get the sandwich down. Maybe after 3 1/2 months we will be able to eat a fresh raw egg. Yea, highly doubtful. 

Zach headed to the field after breakfast and I farmed my crops and took care of my animals on Hay Day. I am not usually a gaming geek, but I have a lot of free time. Zach got me addicted to the game and each night we lay in bed and farm. What happened to us?

I had Subway for lunch, again. I got Zach 2 sandwiches because I knew that 1 would not be enough. I went to the convenience store on my way back and found Chip Star Potato Chips. They tasted just like Pringles. We finished the container in one day. I stocked up on some gum and candy, too. They have the best fruit chews here. That's another thing I will be bringing back home. 

 

After Zach got back from the field, we took a nap. Our life doesn't sound very exciting at this point. Sleep, eat, farm, repeat. We haven't ventured out too much yet because we aren't sure we will find our way back. 

On one of my walks I found a pub. It's really close to our hotel. We decided to check it out. Get the heck outta here... AMERICAN FOOD! We had pickles, chicken fingers, a cheeseburger, and fries. I honestly could have eaten 2 cheeseburgers. It was the best cheeseburger I ever had. Why do I have a feeling we will be eating there at least 4 times a week? I had Oolong Tea to drink. It's a very healthy tea, except for the fact that I added liquid sugar. They looked at me like I was committing a sin. No shame in my game. 

We finally got our Japanese phones today. We both got the iPhone 5S. We also got a little gadget that will give us WiFi wherever we go. They have the best technology here!
