A reporter recently asked Michael Jordan whether he thought the Bulls teams of the 90s could beat Steph Curry’s Warriors teams of today who have won 6 of the last 8 NBA Championships?

 

MJ: Yes. Most definitely.

 

Reporter: By how many points?

 

MJ: 2 or 3 points.

 

Reporter: Why do you think the game would be so close?

 

MJ: Well, most of us are nearly 60 now.

And a lovely lunch we had across from the Basilica de Pilar.

So a jam on plate,beef tartare with borage ice cream and beef ribs with potatoes. Rojaan had 2 glasses of wine and I had 2 beers. The bill came to EUR 60.

Service was excellent.

Lovely piccies Dr Ron … anything with food in it get’s my vote! 🙂

 

The last piccy I think was taken in Oz as it is upside down when viewed in the UK. 🥸

 

Enjoy your adventures.

Yes indeed it is but I looke at food both ways now!

Unfortunately I couldn't post the view as an upside down Basilica just looks funny.

I'm happy to flip them for you, if you have some that you really want to post, but they are upside down.

Tomorrow is disembarkation and we will back to Iceland for a road trip. Greenland was a great destination. Learned a lot.

 

And we had two new experiences: first time I tried Baked Alaska (have seen it many times in Food Network but never tried) and steak from Kansas ( I know there is someone in this group that is from Kansas and is related to the steak industry).

Some pictures from this week's trip to Nag's Head North Carolina, rented a place on the beach and invited family.  We're on Day 2.  Going to meet grand daughter's boyfriend of 2+ years Tuesday - the young man is from Nice, France.  I'll try not to scare him off...😉

Hmmm… there’s RachelG who is a doctor from Oklahoma whose husband is a lawyer and gentleman rancher. Could it be George you’re thinking of?
