Day one of training went well, there was a lot of basic diamond information that I already knew but it makes me happy that I am here for Stephanie to help prep for our test tomorrow. Even though I am very confident in my knowledge for the test I still can't help but to be nervous. Unprepared test taking is still one of most common, realistic, and drawn out nightmares I still have.
We met with the lawyer for Diamonds International today in regards to our immigration paperwork. We learned we will be taking a short trip to Mexico City to finish up everything, Steph has notions of a multicolored school bus bounding across Mexican desert with us our lawyer, a dozen chickens, and maybe a goat. Which sounds great to me, but in reality it is going to be a lot of farting around in airports and a short bus ride sans chickens I hope we end up spending a night in Mexico City and get to try some really good street food.
Food update: Yesterday we ate at The Burger House, which is actually more of cart. We were pleasantly surprised, a burger, fries, and soda for about $5. The winning touch is the old school wood fire grill pumping out made to order burgers.
Tonight was Cuban, Casa del Mojito, I had been hesitant of this place because of the cheesy name and its proximity to the tourist area but we wandered in because it is a little chilly today and it is one of the few places I wanted to try that wasn't mostly outdoors. 4 beers a chicken dish with all of the appropriate Cuban sides and a Cubano Sandwich, for $25. Not bad, oh plus chips and salsa.
