Traveler Happy birthday Christie, beautiful memories made on your very special day. For the reason you stated is why we do enjoy seeing the sites, eating the food and drinking the wine of the country we’re in. God has created an amazing world for us to see. Sent to you from the Northern Sea heading to the Arctic Circle and the Midnight Sun. 🤗💐🎈🎉🎊🤗❤️❤️
Christie Mitchell Thank you!! Sounds fantastic. I hope you’re trip is wonderful
Traveler What an incredible way to spend your birthday. Job well done! How was the dessert? Many happy returns of the day my friend. 💙
Christie Mitchell The dessert was interesting. I liked it, but probably wouldn’t have another. It was kind of like a donut texture with the cream on top. And the cream in Europe is never very sweet - which is nice.
