Wednesday was Gadea’s birthday. And we did go to a fiesta. It was fun. Full of adults. And we left at about the time most people were just getting started. (We did read later that it turned out to be a great birthday party!) Saturday was *the* party day however. And we prepared. And we…

We have had some visits. Matys, Sasha, Laure and Xavier came for a nice BBQ, and Flamine and Fabien came too. And we went to Flamine’s birthday party, which happened to be on her real birthday, and Gadea’s, too!

After spanish school we go for lunch, sometimes at the market. And we might even sing while eating!

Wednesdays, we bike from Gadea’s school to Eyquem’s daycare. Park the bikes, then go down to the swimming pool. The last two weeks, Gadea has has a new 20″ bike, and the going has been, shall we say, drama filled. But improvements have been tremendous! In the swimming pool, all us well. And Gadea is…
