Time certainly flies: we had another anniversary. Just like every day, we shared the
best bits of the experience.
As
we have issued ourselves a travel ban until some ‘urgent’ things in and around
our house have been sorted out, we were hoping to spend a couple of
hours in Rome but had to settle for Paris instead. The showing time of La grande bellezza, the movie that won
the Oscar for the best foreign film this year, didn’t suit our schedule. Our
second choice The Grand Budapest Hotel was fully booked in both the theatres where it was playing.
The
third grand one Yves Saint Laurent
wasn’t at the very top of our wish list but as the film only opened a few days ago it was
shown in a large enough theatre at a convenient time. I do appreciate his anniversary-like
gesture to suggest watching that one together.
When
we left YSL and were walking to the car the sun was starting to set turning the
top of the neoclassical Helsinki Cathedral all pink. Quite a rosy end to an evening
out for the two reluctant merrymakers.
It
is beginning to look worryingly prosaic. I had better start planning some
serious celebrating at a faraway location for next year’s 10th anniversary.
Myöhästyneet onnittelut! Tässä päivänä muutamana yritin muistella, minä päivänä hääpäivänne on, mutta päivä ei muistunut mieleen, kuukauden sentään muistin ;)

ReplyDeleteThank you, Sarah! That's how we generally have our cake at a café so we both get to taste two different kinds.
