Wanda's Birthday - 6th January 2008

It's Sunday morning - My dear wife's birthday, and she has caught up to me now as we are the same age now, well at least for another 10 months at which stage I will be the "older" one in the house.

I looked out the window, and notice that the sun was shining and that looked like it was going to be a lovely day. A perfect day in fact for my lovely wife. Lying in bed we contemplated as to what we would do for her birthday, and we decided that we could not waste a day like this in doors. We decided to go biking, but not around the neighbourhood, but rather at the Look Out which has biking trails. As we have not done this before, we have not invested in a bike carrier yet and we ad to load the bikes - yes all 4 of them into my car. Wanda took Kayla in her car and Waldo joined me in the bike transport.

Arriving at the Look Out it seemed a lot of people had the same idea as us, the place was buzzing. We unloaded the bikes, hitched Kayla's bike to mine (as madam cannot do this on her own yet) and off we went on our first ever bike hike! Boy was it fun - riding through the woods in the fresh air. Waldo especially enjoyed freewheeling down the steep hills. We did about 4 miles and it felt great. I wish I could say the same for our bums!!!

We all agreed that this turned out to be an excellent day which was complimented by a lovely dinner.

I had also bake a cake - and boy was it a cake of note - due to a comedy of errors I ended up baking 2 cakes and putting all the bits together to make one cake. It ended up weighing almost 2KG!! I'll have to work a bit on my baking skills I think.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WANDA !!
