Another Kind of Celestial Fireworks

Australia Day was clouded out, so no comet (sigh, no comet fix today MUST PHOTGRAPH COMET (sfx: cold water being poured on head)).

Ahh, I'm better now. Anyway, the Grandparents are in town for EldestOnes 10th birthday. Yes, EldestOne has reached double digits. He is very excited, so Grandparents made the 800 km journey to be with him. We clebrated their safe arival with dinner at a cafe in Semaphore, with a balcony view overlooking the pier and fireworks display.

Despite the cloud it was a plesant evening, so everyone was out in force, with picnicers crammed into every available free space. We actually hadn't planned to stay for the fireworks, but with the cafe full of Australia Day revelers, by the time we got our food, the fireworks were on. We got a nice view for the cafe balcony. By the time we got home, the boys were ready for bed, ready to celebrate Eldest ones double digits today.

Happy Birthday to Eldest One!

An Australian I know gave me an anzac biscuit (first one I've ever had) to celebrate Australia Day here in the UK.
 
EldestOne says "Thanks!". He (and the rest of us) are still recovering from too much cake (yes, there really is such a thing).
