Day 21

This morning, learned that latte in Russian is spelled: latte; though the bakery outside uses the cyrllic letters. I haven't had coffee this good since Mr. Toads in Santa Cruz. StarBucks has nothing on a good cup of joe out here. Thanks to NesCafe, we are able to get a good cup of coffee; but the machine doesn't allow for a double-shot of expresso. The pastries were good too! They are very rich and you can't eat a lof of them. We all only had one and that was enough. I'm going to trying to get some coffee beans before we leave so everyone else can share the experience. Oh, and by the way, this better than StarBucks coffee was under a buck. Then we went to the flea market across the street. There were a lot of people there, selling their wares: clothes, shoes, food (all sorts, like a grocery store), DVDs, etc. We picked up some clothes for the girls and a travel bag to bring their stuff home in. And we found some good deals too; but Jenn couldn't stand the smell of the indoor section for the cheeses, meats, and such. Later in the day, we went and visited (agh, I hate saying that now) Gela. She showed us how to blow bubbles and learned how to say bubbles in the process.
