Birthday Part Two

I sometimes call Pete "an 8 year old" and what I planned for his birthday was evidence of that. It was a surprise night and I just told him where to drive.

First stop: McDonalds!
Pete opening his presents there.













Second stop: Waltham Abbey Marriott!

We both were talking recently about how we haven't been swimming in years. Also Pete LOVES and I mean LOVES hotels. So we had a surprise stay at the Marriott and had the whole pool to ourselves. Pete did 34 laps.. one for each year.

Next morning: Breakfast at the Candy Café!Great place.

Candy Cafe? Great name :) What kind of breakfast do you get there? Chocolate chip pancakes?

I wish! That would make perfect sense if only chocolate chip pancakes existed over here. It was a pretty standard breakfast but a very cute and fun place!
