Lost in translation....


Tonight was time for letting Vitaly guide us.  Bryan asked him if we could do something special - play laser tag!  He was super excited and said he knew just where to go!  Well, we certainly didn't understand the directions, so we just followed him along as he read bus schedules, street signs, and asked people for clarification.  After about 4 or 5 bus/trolley switches, we were totally lost in a part of the city we'd never seen and could no way find our way home from.  Well, exciting for V to lead the way.  And laser tag is a fun reason to travel all over to find a good one!

Imagine our surprise when we walk into the giant mall area and he leads us into a bookstore/electronics shop.  What???  Nothing like any laser tag we have ever seen?  V heads to the cashier and I thought he was asking for help.  He sure was!  She pulls out a tray of the nicest little laser pointers you have ever seen :)  He has wanted one since Christmas so that he can drive the cat crazy.  Apparently, when Bryan said "laser tag" he focused on the LASER part.  Cheapest laser tag we could have ever found - $3!! Although I'm thinking there surely was one closer :) And our tour guide was pretty awesome and knowledgeable too.  Never know what is coming next....
