Places We Go: The Living Room

 Ahhhh the weekend. On Friday night we booked our tickets for a vacation over Easter weekend (details coming soon) before heading to The Living Room for a birthday party. The Living Room is a new restaurant and bar in Lilongwe. The party was loud and crowded so we quickly exited in favor of spending a few hours at the casino here in town which is named 'American Pirates.' Neither of us are gamblers (at all) but we have friends here who make it fun to play blackjack for a few hours and the buy-in is only 300 kwacha per hand (385 kwacha = $1 right now). We won 5,500 kwacha, whoop whoop!

Since The Living Room also serves delicious iced tea and veggie quesadillas we headed back for lunch on Saturday. The outside porch is comfy and breezy and perfect for the gorgeous sunny days we've been having recently. Afterward Zach played in a soccer game at the local stadium (they won), we got dinner at our favorite Indian place with some friends visiting from Lusaka and then went to a birthday party with delicious funfetti cake from America.

Any guesses about where we booked our vacation for?

  2. did we ever find out where you went for Easter? this feels like a huge cliffhanger. unless it's what zach was blogging about before the Internet was slow. from your facebook pictures I will guess you went to Rwanda.
