Evening at the Oasis

We've been meaning to go to the Oasis while mom is still here, but it was never "on the way". Finally I decided it will happen this Friday.

I thought just mom and I will go for some drinks and snacks and the sunset. But Zoran dropped by for an afternoon coffee with mom at the house, and she invited him to come as well. Of course, then he invited Emilia, so it was a longer affair with dinner. Mom and I went separately, and the traffic at that hour on a Friday was just horrendous; it took us 45 minutes to get there because of stop-and-go on 360. I probably should have planned it for a weekend. I could barely recognize the place when we got there.

The complex now looks like a mini-town. Fields of paved parking lots and a huge multi-level garage. They also have shuttles. Several new buildings sit between the road and the old restaurant, so the main entrance is hidden behind them. The line to get your name on the waiting list was long, but moving along.

We had just enough time to get drinks to see the sunset. Zoran and Emilia joined us a bit later and we moved inside because without sun it was getting cold very quickly. We had fun, and were one of the last guests to leave.
