IT FEELS LIKE SUMMER!

(I'm catching up on a few days of posts that I missed from Jen ;-P)
It is quite warm here. This is not ‘usual’ according to some locals. Most places don’t have air conditioning for homes. And shops that have it never get quite cool. So your best bet is shade of a tree, building, or umbrella.

We found some reprieve from the heat by going to the park early and coming home to our air conditioning (thank goodness!!) for the main part of the day.
At the park we had the zip line to ourselves, this was a first and I felt comfortable having LG try without too many other kids waiting. He loved it! He is quite the dare devil:). Austin went a gazillion times and even I got in the mix! These are the best things! I wish U.S. parks would have them!

Also an interesting thing to note, for all my mom friends that dread going to the park only to have a daycare bus show up- it happens here too! Thank goodness they chose the older park over the furthermost park! So it wound up ok.
We refreshed with Juice and a pretzel. And a couple errands.
When we arrived home the cooking lady, Alina (my poor English translation) made another amazing meal for lunch! Austin was super happy about the main course! First was an amazing meat soup, I am learning to like soup even in summer! Then for the main course pancakes filled with Nutella or vanilla curd cheese! So amazing! Austin said I needed to get the recipe from her :) I wish I could have her come every week we are here!

After LG's nap we went out again, this time to cool off in the local bubbling spouting water. LG really got into it until he got all his clothes wet then he was DONE and wanted to go. Austin said it was to hot to go in the fountain. (???)
We ended the night listening to live music and a dancing part of a No Drugs campaign and they had games set up so Austin and I played tether ball, ping pong, basketball, soccer, and the boys even got to go in the trampoline! LG’s first time and loved it!

For those praying we had a great night sleep! Continue praying.

Also pray for LG's transition of having Tony back.
