I'd never had a macaroon before. I tried one of those green ones, and it was pretty much how I'd imagined it to be. Not really my thing. I could happily live the rest of my life without having another one. They look pretty, though.

I don't think I'd had any alcohol since Christmas / New Year, but I enjoyed some bubbly and other vino, during this trip. We had this stuff with the Easter lamb.
