Happy birthday Eric!!

How did we get so old?? I don't feel like we're old enough to be celebrating 52!

We went out to lunch at a new restaurant called Zari. It's beautiful...but the food was very underwhelming (alas). But we had a lovely view of the sea and a super nice waitress. We asked her more about the origins of the restaurant's name, explaining that our daughter was named Zari. She brought us a book about the restaurant owners (Ukrainian) who have all sorts of restaurants, hotels, and resorts in Ukraine and decided to open their first restaurant in Nice.

The staff all wore lovely t-shirts, and I asked if we could buy one. She came back and said, "They're not for sale...but I can give you one!" We have a very generous tip to "pay" for the t-shirt.

Eric went spearfishing in the afternoon. His spear is slightly askew and it pinged off 3 fish instead of actually spearing them as it should have. Time to get a new spear.

I made Peruvian chicken with spicy lime mayonnaise for Eric's birthday dinner. We sent the kids to Lac to pick out a birthday cake.

Eric is out playing soccer with his men's league. Zari and I went for an evening walk. It started to rain but it wasn't very heavy and it was so beautiful walking around the port, seeing all of the lights, watching a huge ferry depart, fully lit up.

All in all a good day!
