Jaysus, it’s nice out there. After happily reading my paper this morning, we set out on many errands this afternoon, amidst the crowds enjoying the sunshine & 19 degrees. Got some passport photos taken, rented some movies to distract Nellie while I attempt to study accounting tonight (exciting Saturday night, no?), drank some Italian soda, checked out some new bikes, bought some bread & ginger loaf from the bakery, picked up some wine (read: I sat outside for half an hour while wee Nellie searched high and low for a few particular bottles), grabbed our first street meat of the season, investigated a condo sales centre (we have no intention of buying; just wanted to look), got some groceries and came home to our hungry boys.

I really have to get the balcony chairs set up; perhaps my understanding of accounting will increase if I read my textbook out of doors.
