Of Crabs and Gators

Yesterday was our second day at Miami. Even though we are staying at Fort Lauderdale, we have been going to South Beach for all our beachiness. Yesterday, however, we did spend some time at Fort Lauderdale. We went to the lower parts of of the Everglades and got on a air-boat, drifted on water and saw a bunch of alligators.

Later at lunch we tried fried alligator, and I also tried a golden crab. The gator tasted great, I’ll try that again any day. The crab was good too, but by God it was a pain trying to get through all the shell and all. So no more fighting for crab meat for me. I’ll stick to the gators, chicken and fish.

Also news from the north says that Sylvee is doing fine. She’s a bit lonely, but I go back tomorrow and then it all goes back to normal.

Bye Bye Wii

I have done something today that have already confused a lot of my friends. Some may even consider it blasphemous. But I have done it, and there is no going back.

I have sold my Wii. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, you read it right. I have sold my Wii. The Wii and I had a decent relationship. It was a fun thing when my sisters were hear. It is fun when my cousins are around. In fact the last few times they were around I didn’t even play with them.

I always wished that the Wii could stream videos from my machine. Or may be just play some DVDs. I wish the Wii could support 720p so that web pages will look better. May be once the Wii demand is met Nintendo will focus on the next Wii. Or may be they will be nice and provide all these features somehow for free. At that point in time, I can always get the Wii again :)

Until then, bye bye Wii. Hope you conquer more of the console market.

Sylvee is so cute!

Today I came home and before starting to cook played with Sylvee a bit instead of doing it right before going to sleep. And then it was the cooking and eating while enjoying the latest from Omid Djalili. While I was watching it though, I saw Sylvee go upstairs. So far nothing out of the ordinary. What followed, however, was just too cute.

Sylvee managed to find her bag of treats and then manged to get it down and carried it all the way to me downstairs. It was just so cute!! How can I say no treats to a cutie pie like that?
