Saturday, November 17 - Ian and I celebrated our six year anniversary today. I woke up to pink tulips and almond pasteries for breakfast. We spent a good part of the day in the apartment doing some work but in the afternoon we went down to Broadmead to poke around the shops. We went to Debenham's, a British department store that is fairly posh and quite massive, I think they had five floors. We explored every floor then stopped at Wilkinson's for some art supplies and headed home. Once home we got down to the real celebration. We had champagne and exchanged presents then got ready for dinner. Our meal was at the Glassboat which is a boat actually on the water. It was quite lovely because we got to see the city lit up at night and all the lights and candles were reflected onto the glass to give the feeling of a very starry night. The food was delicious. Ian had prosciutto wrapped monkfish with savoy cabbage and I had duck breast with baby root vegetables and parsnip puree, we had a nice Chilean Merlot with the meal. After dinner we took a long path home and watched a movie at the apartment. A wonderful evening.
