Georgina's birthday

It was decided that it's too cold for the boat and, after checking things out, we realised that we would have had to stay way off shore all the time too.
Last night we had dinner in a restaurant where the serving sizes would have fed 3 people each! All very   Italian meals and bed by 10 pm - well for me - Lucas decided to try his luck at the casino that is part of the hotel and is now 150 euros ahead.  We were Georgina, Lucas, Dominique, Mark, Michelle & Steven.
After a beautiful breakfast this morning, we wandered around the Flower Market, which includes lots of fresh food and herbs and spices, fruit and vegies.  Michelle decided that she would like to put together our picninc lunch from these beautiful selections, so she and Steven went on their way.  We then met up with  Gianina and Christian and spent a few hours on the light rail and wandering the town & shops.

We all met up at 1 pm in the gardens nearby for lunch, which included Laureen and her daughter Brodie who works here.  Beer, wine, cheeses, duck pate, breads, tomatoes, lettuce, radishes, strawberries, raspberries, macaroons!!!!  Happy birthday to me.
