I had a great Birthday yesterday. It started with a phone call from New Zealand in the morning from Mum, Dad, Chris, Rachel, Andrew and Sarah, perfectly timed so that it didn’t get me out of bed and arrived just as I was about to leave the house for work. In the evening we had some friends around for a bit of a party, a few games and lots of delicious food that Kat cooked. White chocolate mud cake, chocolate brownie, ambrosia and ice cream. It’s a good thing birthdays only come once a year.
Kat gave me a nice new leather wallet to replace my existing one which has definitely seen better days. It came complete with tickets for a concert by a band I like in Dublin in February next year. She knows me well 🙂
Having a birthday makes for a busy week, I just got around to sorting out all the photos from our weekend away in Belgium. Kat has already filled you in on most of the details. The main question I came away with was when and why the World Expos died out? they seem like they were pretty cool events. I whittled down the 277 photos we took between ourselves (we both carry a camera now!) to a reasonable 42 that should give you a taste for our experiences in Belgium.

What a great life and times you are having. Photos are excellent (see you take lots too!!). Bon voyage for NY too.
