Erika's Birthday
Friday 10th September 2021
Rather a quiet one this year - we somehow didn't really get our act together to organise anything. So it was just the three of us - present opening in the morning, cake after Erika got back from school, and sushi for dinner in the evening.

Erika having some "kid's beer" - the sort of Japanese thing you can't really imagine flying in the UK somehow. It is in fact sparkling apple juice.

In fact even in Japan they have in recent years rebranded it from "Kodomo no biru" (kid's beer) to "kodomo no nomimono" (kid's drink). Although it is clearly still meant to look like beer.
