Happy Cinco de Mayo 2006!

The plan tonight was to walk to our local neighborhood Mexican restaurant for dinner to celebrate Cinco de Mayo.Since we have a kid, it's an early dinner and we beat the crowds so there wasn't any problem getting a table without reservations. It's Astrid's first time in a Mexican restaurant and here she is checking out the interior. Faux, plastic plants hanging from the ceiling...(check), a small TV playing some sports game...(check), and bottles of red and green hot sauce...(check).The menus is almost as big as Astrid.Watching Papa eat chips and salsa.Uwe feeding Astrid her oatmeal.Beverages include: 1) water for Astrid, 2) a Negro Modelo beer for Uwe, and 3) a strawberry margarita for me.
Uwe making funny faces and making Astrid smile.
Uwe and I each had the chicken taco combo with rice and beans. Astrid ate a whole slice of tomato and had a little bit of guacamole.

Since we were walking home, we had another round of refreshments before heading home. It made the walk home (which was all uphill) more pleasant.

Happy Cinco de Mayo!
