My birthday in Spain!

I was stoked to be able to have my birthday in Espana – espeically with having my NZ clan there as well! I realised that I’ve kind of started a trend with having birthday’s in different countries… 2008 was in NZ, 2009 was in the UK and this year in Spain.  Next year it’s the big 3 0 so I’m kinda toying with the idea of treating myself to a Mediterranean cruise to mark the occasion!  We’ll see what happens tho… a lot can happen in a year!

SO this birthday we went to La Cala for brunch at the beach and I indulged in an absolutely delicious strawberry tart! Birthday’s aren’t a day to watch your waistline (not that I did at all while we were away but still!) After scoffing that down we went for a walk along the beach taking the long way back to the car, then just had a lazy day each doing our own lazy stuff!

For dinner we went to a really nice restaurant in Cabopino called Alfreds.  Dad was in heaven as it was right on the marina so he went a’wandering while we waited for the drinks to arrive… he pretty much told Mum what he wanted and he was off haha. Dad loves his boats! Of course for me the occasion called for mojitos… I love my mojitos and I had a reeeeally good one at Alfreds.  The food was to die for and we all waddled outta there a couple hours later and of course Dad had to go look at the boats AGAIN… so we tagged along and I took some pics for him. We walked along the beach and heard the Spanish fans going nuts as Spain was obviously kicking someone’s ass in the World Cup haha.
