Deluge of photos coming up!
I turned a year older on Monday, and celebrated with Jo, Lalang, Jeremiah, David and Johannes. We had a lovely picnic in Hyde Park, where the weather was compliant and showered us with a bit too much sunshine, and there were the most intriguing cloud-formations juxtaposed against the glorious blue sky. The girls both baked me a decadent chocolate cake each (which was totally unplanned, talk about uncanny coincidences), and both were yummylicious! THANK YOU!
Those are my gorgeous presents from Jo and Jeremiah - chocolate, junk food, captured memories, all of my favourite things! And other caught moments of frolicking in the sun, bubble-blowing, akido trials and of course, it's never complete without beer!
You can't really tell from here, but see that guy in the background? He was running up to us in the most camp fashion imaginable, asking for a bottle-opener. It doesn't sound so funny when I put it down in words, I guess it's one of those moments where you had to be there. After death by the two shooters of the nastiest rankest alcohol I've ever tasted in my life (which doesn't really count for much), the night took on such an illuminating radiance that I was immediately bewitched. Or rather, I looked bewitched - think "ruddy red face". ('Bewitched' sounds far nicer than 'intoxicated' or 'drunk', don't you think?) Throw in a heady mixture of great company, laughs and more alcohol - you've the recipe for the splendid culmination of a birthday celebration, clearly evident from the last snapshot.
These photos are taken from Jeremiah's camera, and there are a few more over here. Part 2 coming up soon, photos with Jess/Jing/Lenny and Dominic's gift to me, so check back in a day or so. I love birthdays again!
