A kindler gentler Friday

Kate and I bought Alice an aquarium with all the fixtures and fittings as a farewell salute to some 10 years with us. It was Kate's idea and much better than my suggestion of a scarf. All this I think I've recounted before. But Alice was thrilled with the aquarium, she just needs to add fish and enjoy...It took us well over a month to get it together but I'm really glad that we did.

Kate and I left Alice standing in front of the builidng looking for a taxi to go to Brooklyn in the middle of rush hour which made me somewhat nervous that she would still be standing there when we got home from our impromptu dinner in the Park. All good. No Alice. Good dinner of Chinese takeout as we watched the yogo class stretch and om.

Ice cream capped a perfect evening.
