Date night in Bratislava

I'm back in Bratislava, it has been since May when I went back to San Jose. I had a good flight over on Sunday the 17 October and arrived on Monday the 18 October. San Francisco to Frankfurt, Germany switched planes and then to Vienna, Austria. Still working out the time change.

Alexandra and I went out Wednesday night to see a movie, Desert Flower, which was a very sad story about the struggles of Waris Dirie. The movie was in English and Somalian with Cech subtitles. Interseting work that out. Great place to see a movie though at the university down the street.

After the movie we went to a corner pub and watched a Champions League soccer match. Standard smokey pub in Bratislava although it was well lighted and it had a gaming room next door. The gaming room was video card games from what I saw. The best part about the pub was the Corneco Nachos machine. The machine was a heated glass container much like the popcorn machines at hardware stores in the states. Inside were chips that looked like a poor version of Doritos baking under a heat lamp. Some people did order nachos and they were served on a round dish with a built in salsa ccompartment. I can't say for sure what the salsa was like, it may have just been tomato sauce.
