David Has Left the Country

What's so interesting, this is so funny, we were driving around with our driver here and he goes, there's this ongoing, I was asking about the mayor 'cause we drove by like the mayor's house. And he goes, yeah, there's this ongoing thing where every time there's election season, the mayors or the people that are running for mayor promise to build an aqua park in Slovakia, like a water park. They promise to build a water park and they say that'll help boost our economy because tourism will finally become a serious thing here in Slovakia. And this has been an ongoing thing for 20 years apparently, and no one's built this aqua park. But every time elections come around, some mayor in Slovakia is promising this water park. And it's so funny because they refer to it as an aqua park.
