Happy Birthday Kim! I had to read to find out.. You've given UN day more coverage than your birthday. Sweet. Here's to a better united peaceful world. In Finland, the national flags are flown from poles to mark this day.
A great photo to mark both days! Best wishes for a great birthday!
Nice idea Kim, I've been so busy I haven't seen the news in a few days, I would have surely known by now about UN day, but at least I have found out here, so thanks. Hope there's an aussie flag there somewhere!
Happy Birthday Kim!
