Men and trucks floating down from the sky - and ....crispy duck.

Monday April 11, 2016

What an exciting day today!  We went on base to run some errands ( went to the Post office to mail the chocolate before the weather warms up too much) and they were running some drills and I got to see "stuff" ( vehicles and supplies) and people jumping out of a plane.   It was cool and also beautiful at the same time.  My pictures are not very good because they were a long way away, but you get the idea....



Booker was not jumping out or flying, he was watching and critiquing. : )

For dinner I had a craving for crispy duck (had it the first time I was here) so we came home and walked downtown and ate at a local restaurant known for its German and Thai food.  I had the sweet and sour crispy duck, the duck was great, but the sauce was only okay, but too traditional - I should have gone for the mushroom crispy duck.  Caroline got peanut crispy duck  that was delicious and we took some Curry crispy duck home for Booker  - which he took for lunch the next day and said it was D.E.L.I.C.I.O.U.S.  : )  I look surprised in this picture, not sure why..... : )


Can you tell this is going to be a blog that is heavily weighted toward food?  And I haven't even gotten to Italy yet!
