cholo's and a new friend

Yesterday, my Aunty took me to Haleiwa. It had been awhile since she had been there and awhile since we've both had Mexican. We stopped at Cholo's for lunch. It was our first time there and we were surprised at how popular the place was.

I had the veggie burrito (US $9.00) and my aunty had the meat taco salad (US$10.50)...sorry my photos were a big blur...but the burrito was good, peppery with lots of vegetables inside. Plus, I love the fact that they serve free chips and salsa. In Japan, you need to buy them. Thanks for a nice afternoon, Aunty!

I also wanted to show you my new friend, Griffey. He is the neighbor's dog, a big guy, but a cutie. He's quite shy, but came close enough for me to snap his mug. When I first came home in January, he would just bark and bark, but now when he hears my rubber slippers dragging in the patio, he runs to the fence to say, "hi".

Have a nice week!

  8. Funny you mentioned "dragging your rubber slippers". A friend mentioned to me long ago, that she knew I was coming from a distance, coz local people drag their rubber slippers when they walk while others don't.
