trip to KC

so we went to Kansas City, Missouri (and probably also Kansas City, Kansas) yesterday...
parked the car right to the convention center, as we thought there should be some sights/shops whatever around. pustekuchen.
such a boring downtown. and it was quite hot. so we went into this one bar asking the waitress where to go in KC. and we eventually made it to the Liberty Memorial (WW1) and to South Plaza - a really nice place...kinda looks like disneyworld though. It's supposed to like like a southern (maybe mexican) village...with all kinds of shops, restaurants, bars, etc... as I said - a really nice place. went to cheesecake factory. OMG! I had a chocolate cookie dough cheesecake! AMAZING! our waiter was from albania and invited us to hang around with him when we're in the area again...we might do this, since st. joe really won't be a metropolitan city in the next few months :)
I uploaded some pictures from our trip (we = cindy, yuichi, wolfgang=driver and myself)...
There's a liquor store close to the campus that carries all kind of European beer brands. Besides some "weird" ones like "st. pauli girl" (mit dirndl!) there are actually beers like, spatenbraeu (optimator doppelbock), weinstephan, warsteiner, bitburger und PRINZREGENT LUITPOLD ROYAL HEFE WEIZEN! :)
anyways, i better get back watching the Chiefs (Kansas' nfl-team)... gonna play soccer today! I'm excited!
hope you're all doing just fine
