DInner at Jiko's

Hello world,
so I had monday, tuesday, and wednesday off this week and it was excellent.  Yesterday myself and a couple of my culinary friends went out to dinner at Jikos which is a signature dining restaurant at Disney's Animal Kingdom lodge.  They feature traditional African cuisine served in a contemporary manner.  Let me just say, it was AMAZING!!!! The girls and I were having such an emotional experience, a couple of times we thought we were going to cry because we were soooo excited and enjoying everything so much.  We had  a total of 11 courses  I posted what we had so you can all be jealous =) muwwwwwwwwwwwa ha ha ha

Today I finished my 10 page position paper for my online english class and found out that one of my classmates arrived yesterday to start her internship so I might stop by and see her later on.  For now I think I'm going to get out of my room and go take a walk.  I've been on this computer way too long lol.  

Peace,

Ally
