DAY 4
September 17
It´s Friday. Earlier this week we had promised Alberto we would take him to the
movies. Before going to school...he made sure we remembered. I don´t know
who was more exited, if he ...or us!
We were in no hurry to do anything in particular during the day. Therefore, I
took some time to empty the suitcases, which still had most of my clothes in it,
and helped Mayra with lunch. She had some chicken quarters....onions....lemons...
hmmmm...perfect for IT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME CHICKEN.....
However, I made a quick version using Mayra´s pressure cooker. In about half an
hour it was ready! We acompanied it with mashed potatoes and a salad. Delicious!
Around 4 P.M. we started getting ready. Toy Story 3 was playing at Plenilunio Mall,
http://www.plenilunio.es/el_centro.php, right were Pepe works.
That meant ice cream for Alberto.
And ice cream for Yayo toooo!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, I have found out there are some of these shops in the U.S.! Which makes
sense, because, it is an American company.... I just had´t seen any!!!
Thank you internet....lol!!!
Alberto enjoyed the ice cream, but....he was ecstatic about watching Toy Story 3
in 3-D!!!
And he wan´t the only one having fun....
Look at the finger prints on Alberto´s glasses...was he actually able to see
the movie???? Too funny....
When we came out of the theatre we saw Mayra and Raul, that had come to join
us and spend some time together.
What a great couple these two make.
Here´s my cutie pie Gabriel.
lWas Alberto asking for more
lice cream????
Now...please, check out Alberto pretending to be asleep! Anything to get in a
photo!!!
After the mall we went back home. I felt extremely tired, and thought I would
sleep all night. But, at 1:30 A.M. I got up! NOOOOO!!! I guess it was a U.S. time
zone nap. After waking up there was no sleep. We had plans to go see Marian,
Pepe´s cousin, who was hospitalized and, I kept thinking about her. Oddly, Raul
got up too. We walked back and forth to our rooms, but...neither could reconcile
sleep. I ended up blogging. Raul ended up ironing, in the kitchen, a pile of clothes!
Around 6 A.M. My body and mind gave up.....
