Birthday tid bits......

The medical surgery I visited during my stopover in Rio de Janeiro last January has sent me a 'Feliz Aniversario' email that reads 'Muitas Alegrias' which I believe is 'Many Joys' in Portuguese. I don't get that service through Medicare nor my private health fund in Australia.

Lunch on my birthday was at the Bondi Icebergs;

The view over a wintery Bondi Beach was still stunning even though bereft of the usual scantily clad bathers and packed sands.

I'm not much into seafood but enjoyed a very tasty Grilled Mahi Mahi meal even if it was more tropical meal than winter's fare;

CZ and I shared a Lemon and Lime Tart and a French Apple Tart for dessert. I suspect not up to wcs standard but delicious none the less.

    I can't see Tourism Australia making you an offer for your Bondi Beach photo. It can be quite nice to have a cozy inside lunch while the weather is so bad outside.

      That probably amounted to a summer's day for a Scotsman or, dare I say it, a Melbournian.

      Come on now Victor, it's not like that all the time here in Bonnie Scotland - just 80% of the time. The sun is shining this morning.

    Ha! You might be surprised... I love apple tart in most of its forms, as long as it's not overly sweet or drenched in cinnamon. :)
