Quarter of a Century!

For the first time in about 13 years, Grandma and I celebrated our birthday together! We had a lovely few days together; it was a great birthday!


Jonathan had the day off so we all caught the train to Southbank. Sarah enjoyed the motion and was climbing up and down on the seats; Abigail preferred to sit on mummy's lap (she found it a bit noisy and rattly).

Mummy: "It's an adventure."
Abigail: "No. It's a train."

From the train we walked across the River and caught the CityCat. Again, Abigail found it a little scary and preferred to sit close to mummy, but did go with daddy to stand at the front of the boat for a little while. Sarah slept.

By the time we got back to Southbank we were ready for lunch. Boost Juice smoothies (I got a free one for my birthday), Subway (again, free for my birthday), wedges, pizza and salad were much enjoyed, and with full tummies we went to check out the kids water play area.

It was fun!


Both girls loved it and had a great time - Abigail enjoyed playing in the pool; Sarah loved going through all the water features. We adults enjoyed watching them.

Cold and wet little girls were dried off and dressed again, and we caught the train back home (Abigail was less timid on it this time). After naps/rests we went out for dinner at Sizzlers. I love Sizzlers. As usual, it was a lovely meal and we came home with full tummies (mine still had enough room for birthday cake :) ).


Happy birthday Grandma! And happy birthday me!
