A visit to the Zoo, and a first critical test

Last week ATG and me spent almost the whole week together. The schools have their week of autumn holidays here, so ATG had a week off, and I decided to take some days off too. The original idea was to go away for a few days, but that plan didn't materialize: instead, we spent most of the week hunting for furniture for the patio that is being built at her house. We did do a daytrip to the Zoo in Harbour Town though. Below are two pictures (the second one alas isn't entirely sharp...):

I think I also passed a first critical test: being approved by ATG's best friend. We went to have diner with her best friend and husband last Friday. The friend was a nice woman of South African origin, the husband has my nationality and was a typical business man, but a nice fellow. We had (too much) of some very nice wines.

Next Friday the test will be reversed: ATG will then join me in an evening with my Friday evening friends.
