Karaoke and Pasta

It's been an interesting last few days for the blogging crew. Brittany's been sick, so the last couple of days have been the Adventures of Team Testoterone. But before these adventures, while Captain Cook was still with us, we met some skaters at Rossio. They set up a grind rail and were doing crazy tricks on and off of it. We found out that some of them were sponsored...we could tell who they were from their skill level. We asked if they skated there often, and the answer was no...they go where ever they want.

Yesterday was a really good day. It's too bad Brittany missed it. After hanging out with our friend Pedro for a couple of hours, Team Testoterone, along with fellow OBU students Owen, Tana, and Leah, headed to an apartment full of Italians, Brazilians, Germans, and such for a wonderful home-cooked Italian meal. There was a pot full o' some awesome shrimp pasta stuff and one full of some pea and sauce pasta (they've got cool Italian names that I can't recall). One of the guys dropped a metal ball-type thing from the top of a pepper shaker into the pea pot, and I was the lucky chap who found it. It was the same size as the peas, and I was a bite away from loosing a tooth. Our new Brazilian friends made some sort of half-melted fudge for dessert, and it was quite scrumpous. We met up with our friends a little later for some karaoke action at a local bar. It was quite the night.
