Sunday was Japan Day in Central Park. Lance, Jin and I walked around the exhibits for at bit. The coolest exhibit was this robot. It was so real! Until you took a good look and realized her moves were a bit jumpy.
We found a nice place to sit under a tree and frisbee began. It was really nice just to lay on the grass and watch. Watch frisbee, watch people, watch the trees moving in the wind. We met a nice guy, named Amos, and a boy of about 10 or 11 who joined the frisbee game.
The highlight for the guys was helping some kids get their Aerobie (a ring that you throw like a frisbee) out of a huge tree. It was this little red spot about half-way up the tree. The guys threw everything at it, trying to shake it out and they were successful after about 15 minutes of attempts. I really wanted to see someone climb the tree, but I was left disappointed. :-P
Julia, Tammi, Ed, and Nicole showed up and played frisbee for a while and then Jin, Lance, Julia and I went for all-you-can-eat sushi at Yuka (2nd and 81st). On the way, Lance showed up this really cool Hungarian deli that sold Russian cookies called Iryaneekee. They are a soft gingerbread-like outside with filling (orange, my fave) inside. Ah, nostalgia!
