Shades of Vinaka

Its been a while since my last afternoon spent in this little cafe. I've been mooching off of someone's signal in the apartment complex, but it seems to have gone missing since yesterday morning, and emails needed to be written and flung at people.

The first thing I see as I walk in is two of the tables have been pushed together, and a small knot of old men are sitting around two chessboards and active games. It was so quaint, so...European. I had to admire it. I like this place, even though right now it seems to have more young skater/surfer punks sitting around than I would like. A couple of girls near me need a lesson on how to laugh a bit less obnoxiously. But in general, this place has great vibes. Perfect for a sunny Monday afternoon.
