Birthday

Yesterday we spent much of the day spending money! In the morning, I went to a bazaar with our neighbours and couldn't resist the trinkets that the locals make - some of it needed but most not.


In the afternoon Fred took me flower shopping [as per Maggie's orders] for roses and exercise equipment [as per my request]. When we returned we rode to JJ's for a cooling beer as the temperatures were hitting the 29C mark. I'm sure Alice and Jim will remember JJ and his "why not".




We had my birthday dinner at La Trattoria and once again had an excellent time. Paolo is originally from Sicily so the food is authentic Italian with a touch of Mexican thrown in.

Hey , you are even sitting at "our" table! Or do they keep it reserved for you? Sounds like you had a great day . JJ's AND Italian in same day.. Just doesn't get better than that.

I think it was our table! No shrimp tacos though, just a cold Pacifico Lite.

Looks like Maggie certainly knows how to spoil you!...and Fred too!
Hope you had a fantastic birthday, Colleen.
