Welcome to Spring Quarter: International Party

Spring Quarter is where the sun comes out, and the party shifts from being in the snow fields (See previous post) to right in our backyard (literally!). And, just a few weeks into term, it was time to to unleash the first of a few almost-summer parties: THE INTERNATIONAL PARTY.

There was a Mexican maranachi band ...



Pancakes from the Netherlands - Scandanavian ones I guess?!



Japanese students in, um, Japanese outfits ...



And mixed drinks from a lot of places! (in this case, Costa Rica!)



... in all, there were over 30 tables, filling out the courtyard in Schwab. It was a great atmosphere and most of the business school (about 500 or so people?) came around for a bite. There was some exquisite and elaborate dishes - from actual korean BBQ to some great desserts and noodles and stuff ...

As for the Australian table - it was kind of lame. I was a bit rushed for time, so I organized an "Australian kids birthday party" - well, at least the kind I had.

All we had time to do was make fairy bread ...



... and this game called "pin the tail on the kangaroo", which was suspiciously like the American version involving a donkey. But hey, at least it gave use the chance to blindfold people and spin them around ... =)
