Once Galina has her drink, she takes a sip with a straw. "Oooh, I can taste the strawberries and pineapple."
"Awwww I didn't know that." She nods, "My dad proposed to my mum five times. Finally she said yes right before he jumped out of a plane." A laugh, it's declassified knowledge. "Will do! It's very exciting, and weddings are fun!"
"Well, we were sure we're getting a fancy wedding because of our families, so we decided to elope. Drove to the Niagara for the weekend, then spent a few days in Tokyo afterwards," she admits with a giggle, scrolling through the photos on her phone then showing a couple to her friend. Okay, so she's luckier than most to be well-off enough for random trips abroad, and so is her husband, but they really only splurge on their travels and their dogs and occasionally their families. Like this vacation.
"But, okay, wow. Five times, really? And he jumped off a plane?" There's some serious admiration there, because, yeah, she skydives, but imagining Galina's dad... that's actually super cool. "Did your sister's fiance have to jump off a plane too?"
