Round Midnight at home…
Hi there!
Can you believe it!!
4 minutes before the clock strikes 12
and I turn into a pumpkin!!!
This 8 hour time difference won’t beat me though!
I’ll be back in a minute!!!
Sorry about that! wanted to post before midnight your time.
We went for a late lunch,
and then I realised that I had left it way too late for my daily blog!
Found a great restaurant though.
Bubba Gumps Shrimp Factory.
Not only was the food excellent, but the whole restaurant was clearly based on that great classic film starring Tom Hanks,
“Forrest Gump”
Bubba was the lovely black dude who was in Vietnam with Forrest.
I remember sobbing buckets when he died in the film.
But hey. The shrimp factory was super.
And the Key lime Pie was out of this world!
Welcome to America.
love & peace,

Hi Barbara! Sounds divine – especially to my diet-hungry eyes| Pleased to hear that you're getting some 'down time' with Dave. Enjoy!! xx
Enjoy! Shame I'm back on my diet – don't think key lime pie is on the list. Susan x
Hi Barbara and Dave glad your having a great time love June Horrocks xxxxx
Hmmm Barbara, Key Lime Pie sounds yummy to me, Loved the film Forest Gump. Hope the sun has come out there, even if you do have to buy some new shades. Hope it all goes well for you, enjoy the experience and some me time together with your lovely Dave. Hugs Pam xx
We all love Forrest Gump in our house, a brilliant movie. Sounds like you are having fun eating American size portions and pudding while we are all at home watching our weight!
Key Lime Pie is my favourite!!! Sounds like a great day. I've had one too as my Clarity order arrived this morning, so I've been playing nice with my new stencil and stamps. Have actually used my Gelli Plate for the first time. I've only had it a year!
Sounds good to me! Enjoy! x
It's so nice to hear that you are having a fun time over there! You really deserve it! Enjoy xxxxxxx
Love that film! Every time it's on TV I find it impossible not to watch. Have a fantastic time over there.
Tonbridge Sue
One of my most favourite films that was. The food sounds delish too. I know it is a work trip but I do hope you get to find some special together time too.

Loved that film have to see if on Netflix so can watch xx
We went to a Bubba Gump in Monterey in Nov, the food was great, but I think we spoiled the waiters day when he asked us film trivia and we didn't know any of the answers!! Hope your trip goes well xx
Lol, great film indeed "I got shot in the Buttocks", cracks me up every time xx
