Mezepoli

So yesterday, Sunday we went to an amazing Greek restaurant...I am honest...Greek mains are not my favourite type of food...but Tapas I love...so if there is a wide variety of Tapas...I am def in.....so my mom has been talking about this Greek tapas restaurant in Melrose Arch called Mezepoli, she said it is really amazing....but before I comment on it I decided to check it out myself...so Sunday lunch was the day....

WOW.....she was not exaggerating, the menu is fab.....all Tapas and about 5 mains (including Souvlaki, Yiro, baby chicken, fillet and lamb chops), we looked at the Greeks next to us and decided to go the traditional route.....for starters we ordered some Pita breads (both the thin and the traditional kind...I never knew there were two)....with some dips and jalapenos....and of course haloumi (deep fried), the jalapenos were my least favourite of the entire day...the other tapas fab! After that we ordered in drips and drabs and the waiters were great we could order one or two tapas at a time they always came and checked on us (and i must also say the restaurant was packed)......great....some of the Tapas that stood out for me were the grilled calamari, the deep fried baby marrows with gruyere and of course the haloumi....but they were all good....and next time there are so many more i would love to try.....really worth a visit if you enjoy the casual sharing type food.....we sat there drinking Kir Royals and just tasting all the various foods.....amazing!

Another cruise in Western Caribbean

This is the second week....we started the journey in Tampa and this Tampa we decided to take Sofia to the aquarium...I was quite interested to see whether she would be fascinated with the fishes or not....and she was....certain ones...certain ones not too much....but she definitely enjoyed going there. The aquarium had 8 sections: Wetlands Trail, Journey to Madagascar, Bays & Beaches, No Bone Zone, Coral Reefs, Dragons Down Under, Ocean Commotion and Splash Pad. We visited all except for the Splash Pad (that is outside for the kids to play and it was closed at the moment). It was nice also because there were areas where you could touch the sting rays...I enjoyed that, Sofia did not want to touch them, and nor did Kim.

Sofia in the Jeep Kim and the Jeep Cherokee Friday night we had some Sushi take-aways because Sofia was jet lagged, and so were we, so we did not make it to a restaurant with her.  Saturday there was also quite a few admin things to get done...but it was a rainy day....it rained almost the whole day...so we got a bit wet, but it is warm rain......so never mind. We started off by driving past our new home (could not go inside as the current owners were packing up) and then we made our way to McKinney where we have a friend who has been so kind to receive and store all of our post,
