I could talk a bit about our several days of doing very little, but reading, drinking and eating, but as most of you have been kind enough to send birthday wishes, I should dispense with the trivial and get to Polley's 74th!
Yesterday we had a lovely day celebrating #74. I got off to my walk and was able to return with a small, humble bouquet of flowers for Polley. I captured her with them as she sat in the sunlight letting her hair dry (we go nowhere until the hair is dry!)
We decided to do a late breakfast at a place that is new this year, on the ground floor of yet another PV condominium unit. It is call the French Riviera Bakery and it has a lovely setting that catches the morning sun. I caught Polley as she prepared for breakfast, already well into her Mimosa!.
Sadly, the location is lovely, but the breakfast was a bit disappointing.
From there, we strolled up to La Fuente del Puente, our favorite place, for just a glass of wine. However, when you have a birthday on St. Valentine's Day, people remember. Sure enough, Aurora, the owner had a gift of Hersey Kisses, a private serenade by the Marimba Duo
and a special birthday cake (Just what we needed after a full breakfast!).
It was a dirty job, but we had to eat the whole thing!
After waddling up the hill to our place, we spent the afternoon reading, resting, feeding the little kittens and collecting our laundry.
However, that evening we had a birthday dinner at our favorite place, Vitea. We were joined by a lady we met these last few weeks, Marsha, and had a great time.
The evenings are really becoming wonderful and tropical. We were a bit embarrassed that we had had such a day, that a stop at El Patio was not in the cards. Ah well, there is always tonight.
Much thanks to all of you who sent birthday wishes. I tried my bet to make it a day that we all think she deserves. More later
