Day out with friends

Today I went out for brunch with my friend Kirsty. We went for brunch at Cafe Savoy. ( http://www.ambi.cz/ambi_cafesavoy_menu_eng.php ) We met up at 10am at the end of our road and hopped on the tram. We got to Cafe Savoy and it was quite busy. They were filming some movie there this morning so their weren't as many tables available as there normally would be. We only had to wait a minute for a table though so it was fine. The restaurant is in a beautiful building. If you check out the link above you can see how the ceiling is all painted. We both had an omelette with truffles with mimosas. I had a hot chocolate, of course. I also had a croissant which was really good. It was probably the best croissant I have ever had. (Granted that isn't saying much since I have never gotten a croissant at a nice restaurant or bakery.) After a leisurely meal we headed out and walked over to the mall at Novy Smichov. We walked around a bit there and I did see a really cute purse but decided not to buy it today. Maybe I'll head back and get it though because it was really nice. We then met up with Kirsty's husband and another friend, Michelle. We all went and saw Blood Diamonds at the cinema at the mall. It was an excellent film but hard to watch. The movie makes you never want to see a diamond again. After the movie we headed home. It was really a great day. I needed a "day off" from mothering and this was perfect. I played with the kids in the morning, got them dressed and fed and put ali down for her nap and then I didn't have to do anything until 5:30pm.
