Date Night

The Marine base hosts a Date Night once a month. You register in advance and for one evening they will watch your children in a very clean, well run, and fun childcare center. It is free and they offer to watch your children from 5 pm until 10:30 pm. Duane and I decided to give it a try so that we could linger over a meal and have some nice conversations.

We tried a place called Tuna House. Here is a sample of items on the menu. We like to point out when we see things spelled like they are pronounced with a Japanese accent. It is very common to see some funny spellings on menus and signs.

We tried Okinawan Crepe, Tofu Chanparu, and Sushi. The Okinawan Crepe was yummy and full of green onions. The Sushi was 1/2 price so we ordered 3 plates of it. At this restaurant we liked the shrimp the best.

Here is my favorite picture. For this date we brought Will because for the most part he just sat in his car seat and watched me eat. When he was ready to see what was on the table, he wanted to touch everything. This did not last long and we were almost done eating. He is a curious 7 month old and he seems to be able to get a hold of anything he wants.

Here are a few pictures of us. We were sitting on the floor on mats. The restaurant was very casual and had lots of local people. We sat for over an hour and talked about future trips we would like to take while living here on this side of the globe.
