Good 'ole U.S of A
Friday night was fish and chips night with trivia at the local pub (Gainsboro). Not any trivia though, US themed trivia on account of our team. Host families, the team and other Rotarians all met there and had a great time, about 35 in total. The pub was packed. One of the questions: "How many letters are in the National Anthem?" After some quick guessing, my team (which contained Ana) asked if Ana and I knew the words. I promptly replied that not only did we know the words, but Ana sings and performs in front of thousands at baseball stadiums back home. Morris (another teammate and Rotarian) shouted "really?". I said yes (as Ana was saying "NO") and that he should tell Bob (quiz master) to ask her to sing. He did, she was great, and everyone cheered. I don't think I know who actually won, but everyone had a great time.
