Wine Bar!!!

There is this restaurant in Kobe that I just love. Its Italian food is great, the price is reasonable and the best thing is the international wine selection!!! We pay 840 yen (about US$8) to drink as much as we'd like in 90 minutes... So, last week, we were there with a group of friends from church!


Here is Mansur and David being silly! If you take a close look, you will notice that Mansur was playing with his mustache, and trying to stretch it out to the sides to look like a cartoon character or an Indian Maharaja! Whatever it is, if I'd known, I'd kindly ask him to fix it!!! Now, we can just laugh! He loves to joke around!


That night, we met Corran, David's friend, who was visiting from Tokyo! Seems like he loved our city so much he might be willing to move down here!


From left to right: David, Corran, Sonja (who you can't see-sorry!), Shintaro (a Japanese guy who is also a graduate student at Kobe University-we have bumped into each other a few times), Benjamin, Frazer,Leah, LeeAnn, and Yoko


Here are 4 ladies, representing 4 different countries!!! LeeAnn from the US, Yoko from Japan, Carina from the Philippines, and Bibian from Brazil! COOL!!! That is what I love about our life in Japan! We have friends from all over the world! That night we also had Sonja from Australia (with Macedonian background) and Frazer from New Zealand!!! And that is nothing!!! There are a lot more friends you will get to meet later on!
