Birthday Party - Gelato Cake

K's birthday came up and she wanted an ice cream cake, and no ordinary ice cream cake, but from Pure Gelato. So we ordered one big enough for 20 people, with two main flavours (forgot the flavours hehe).

So much ice cream, we couldn't finish it, so we chucked it back in the freezer so it doesn't melt to soup. The rest of the food, we continued to eat when we could... *Sigh.

These are Bird Cages hung above the street.  From the plaques on the ground the bird cages represent different species of birds that have been endangered, or have migrated elsewhere due European settlers and the human population increase.  Sounds of birds will be chirping around the cages until later in the evening.
