What’s another year?
My blog production remains on the low side… I often think I should talk about this or mention that, but at the end of the day there’s really nothing new to be told. Another birthday passed – yep, a whole bloody year over already. Again!! I used to be not too concerned about my age, but a few weeks ago I made my year of birth invisible on Facebook. Trying to save some face, so to speak LOL! I’m trying to convince myself I shouldn’t give too much importance to the years, but that’s much easier said than done!
Today I had a day off from work, and as usual hubby and I went out with the motorbike in search of some place I hadn’t invaded with my camera before. Sadly the weather today was on the cool/windy side, which hampered our explorer mood a little. Moreover, before setting off into the wilderness, we spent quite a long time (I reckon it was over an hour) at GoMobile, where we acquired my birthday present: an iPhone G3S! 
I was considering to get a Windoze smartphone instead, but in the end decided against it. I don’t really need another computer! OK, truth be told, I didn’t need another mobile phone either, but let’s not go there!
When we were finally done at Go, we went to find a path leading to is-Salvatur in Marsalforn. That’s a miniature version of the famous statue in Rio de Janeiro. It’s really silly, but we couldn’t find a way to get up there! And as I said, we weren’t too keen on exploring because it really was rather chilly. So I took a couple of shots (the sky was beautiful, and the clouds seemed to have been summoned by Jesus himself!) – before we continued to Marsalforn for a late breakfast…

Our favourite breakfast place (Pierre’s) was closed, obviously due to the rough sea flooding the space where we usually sit, and so we settled for lunch in one of the restaurants at il-Menqa, where only occasionally a few waves managed to climb the wall.

And now the day is almost over too. A belated birthday dinner with hubby & son tonight, and that’s it. I sure wish there was a way to slow down time!
