Tonight my husband and I visited another part of the country. One of my friends celebrated her birthday, and she had invited us for dinner at a local restaurant. We are close friends, but we don't meet very often. We usually talk on the phone and exchange emails and text messages, and it was so nice to see her in person. We talked a lot during dinner.
I knew the restaurant. I lived in that city in the past and sometimes I visited that restaurant. The food was great and we all had free desserts because it was my friend's birthday.
Sometimes I also eat out on my birthday, but not always. Sometimes we cook dinner at home and invite friends over. This year I travelled on my birthday.

Sounds like you all had a great party! The last few years, most of our kids, grandkids, and us stay at a condo at Myrtle Beach, SC (a beach resort in the southern part of the US). We celebrate my birthday, Dec 29 and New Year's Eve. It's always fun to be with the family.

That sounds great. It is nice to celebrate holidays and birthdays with the family. When my grandmother was still alive we used to do something similar.
Yes, it is was very nice to spend time with my friend. We don't see eachother very often.

@amadeo We went to the north of Denmark. We stayed in a small hotel close to beach and we visited some of the places in the area. We travelled with a friend and we had a really good time there.

Yes, it was a busy day. We had to drive to another part of the country, because my friend doesn't live on my island, but it was great to see her.

@Porcospino I do love having a road trip. It is nice to see close friends for not seeing for a long time.

Yes, it was very nice to see her. We don't meet very often, so we we enjoy it even more when we are together. It is also nice to celebrate birthdays at home. We do that sometimes.

@Porcospino I also like to go out, but this year we liked more to stay at home.

I agree, It is nice to spend some time with family or friends and enjoy a dinner together. The restaurant that we visited tonight serves traditional Danish food, but Ialso love to love to visit international restaurants.

@leny34 Fortunately we have some restaurants where the food isn't too expensive. It is nice to visit them, because we can enjoy a nice dinner without spending a lot of money.

@Porcospino Restaurants with traditional food menus are indeed the right choice, because you will not spend a lot of money to eat in traditional restaurants

I always took a vacation week for my birthday. On a couple of occasions, my wife and I made special trips. One year, we went to the east coast of Florida (we lived on the Gulf Coast, north of Tampa) to go to Cocoa Beach and the Kennedy Space Center.
In the picture, we are the entrance to the Kennedy Space Center. I circled the Space Suit hanging up there.

That sounds really nice. I have never been to the US, but if I get the chance to go one day I would like to visit Florida. It is nice to visit a different place on your birthday. We went to the north of Denmark when I turned 42 in September. Last year we travelled the day after my birthday,

Yes, it was a delicious dinner. The dessert was very good, but there was so much ice cream, I couldn't eat all of it

Thank you Yes, I had a great time, and we talked a lot. It was also nice to be back in my old city. I used to live there, but I live in another part of the country now.

It was very nice to spend some time together. I am happy that we were able to visit my friend. It was a short visit, but it was still very nice.
