Finishing the 30th....
I have something else to celebrate valentines day for and that is my birthday. I finished my 30th year this year with a little birthday surprise from Mrs.Behi. I could not believe that she had all those planned since our time in Barcelona in January. As usual, a beautiful setup of candles, card with nice words and the birthday gift. What surprised me most was the home-made cake in front of me, knowing that it was indeed the first time she tried making one. Our little celebration continued with both of us bursting into laughter when she started telling me the story of the cake :) Read her story here.
We had already bought our new means of fun the day before. Two new bicycles! It was almost sunset when we left our place for a relaxing ride along Tripoli port, a place that is yet to be discovered although we drive by it every day. Wide and nicely paved, it is a perfect place for jugging, running and biking or even for a relaxing walk, resting on numerous benches here and there. Valentines day, calm of the sea, nice breeze and the chill of late evening invited many Libyan couples to the safe haven of the port side. Hiding behind the bridge, swirling around street lamps or just face to face with hand crawling in the back on the benches, boys and girls were celebrating the romantic night as we passed them cycling and we all had a smile on our faces.
I don't know why but I thought you are a few years older (~35) ;) Anyway -- happy birthday ;)
