I'm older than yesterday

It was my birthday on Saturday and so together with Amy's parents, who are staying with us at the moment, we ventured out for a birthday picnic at Black Mountain peninsula.

Amy had made me a lovely chocolate cake and we had rolls and cake near the lake.

There was a big fishing competition going on (a Carp Out) dedicated to ridding Lake Burley Griffin of carp. Ivor, Audrey, Eli and I walked the banks looking at some of the monster carp that some of the fishermen had pulled out of the depths of the lake. Sweetcorn and bread appeared to be the bait of the day.
A friend of mine, Chris took some family pics of us. The blog doesn't really do them justice as they're great shots. (in case you're wondering the one on the picnic rug is one of mine!) Eli was far happier after Chris had gone home!!
