Saturday, June 14th was Mikko’s ninth birthday. We had lots of BIG plans.
On Firiday we had an intimate time, just the three of us - at the arcade just off the Jardin. Between races Mikko opened presents.
Luckily I drive real cars with much more poise, sophistication and grace - at least I like to think I do.
On Saturday, his actual birthday, our friends came from San Miguel and we went to the arcade in the MEGA, which is a US style shopping center complete with a food court and McDonalds, for more racing.
After the arcade we went to Luigi’s, which is a new Italian restaraunt. Luigi built his own wood fired oven and makes his own pasta.
We had a big hunk of tiramisu, with candles, for desert.
On Sunday we had the huge seven person birthday party, with the huge cake. I was happy to get to make a cake in Guanajuato because, as many of you know, cakes are my thing. It wasn’t my best work in the frosting department, but it was fun. (And delicious, if I do say so myself.)
