Here I am, celebrating another birthday in Uruguay.  It's just the two of us today, so we escaped to one of the restaurants overlooking the port in Punta del Este.  We sat by the window and birds kept coming up to beg for bread crumbs!  I am not a close-up bird lover.  I like the feathered creatures to stay in their spots up in the sky and up in trees, but NOT close to me.  I finally settled down and took the opportunity to snap some photos instead of being a scaredy-cat.
   My husband had no qualms about feeding them and even got one to eat out of his hand.  Traitor!  
   I had the polenta with shrimp and it was delicious!!  Hubby had the lamb chops (pictured), which were ever so good too.  Sometimes quiet birthdays are the best - spent with birds and boats.
