I am at least one million internet years old. Lefty leftist. Art, math, preferably both at once. Always knitting, usually socks. Western Canadian in Ottawa. I don't know how everyone else sounds interesting in these things. She/they.

Last full day here. Ocho's emotional support 'something with mango in it please' had enough rum in it to fuel a shuttle launch, so I had to cut it with a second glass of fruit juice.
more ceviche, too. I will miss the ceviche.
teppanyaki tonight. I hope to eat my weight in sushi and shrimp.

I was too jetlagged and bewildered to take a shot when we first arrived, but today I wandered up to where the barista and gelato live for a little of each, and took a picture of what you see when you first arrive.

on the opposite side of the bar at the back of shot it drops down into a pool full of gorgeous blue and iridescent blue-gold tiles with a swim-up bar serving piña coladas I had to beg for less rum in.

today is my birthday, and now I am even a million-ier Internet years old.
I want to share this card with you all, because it made me feel very full in the heart in general, and fond of my home province in a way I don't always manage. It wasn't a birthday card, per se, but it was a special treat.
