Break at Hawaiian Coffee while oxidase smog warning

Too hot the oxidase smog warning announcement was made by the ward office this afternoon. We escaped to Hawaiian Coffee, and decided to have a long break. Mo enjoyed cafe latte, both of them had croissant sandwich, then we watched iPad and played games on iPhone (thanks to Steve Jobs) to relax. The warning was still on, though we decided to leave slightly after 5 pm, to be prepared for Monday the next day.
