A special thank you for my son in law, Raul,
who knowing it was gloomy around Auburn, Georgia,
sent me some sunshine from Spain.

A DAY IN AQUOPOLIS
Two little brothers, Alberto and Gabriel,
were replenishing energies
after some serious water-playing time at Aquopolis when...
Alberto, the oldest of the boys, spotted the intruders taking over their large,
yellow floater. He said to his brother with a mouthful of chicken sandwich,
"How dare they!! Hey bro, let's hurry- those two are taking what is ours!"
Gabriel, nodded while slurping his juice.
"Dad!! Yayo!! Don't you think you are acting a little childish here?
This is the kiddy pool and Gabriel and I want the floater back!!
Ummm....... please!!"
Well, Dad and Yayo said, "We're not giving it up without a fight!"
What!!
Oh, dear! The determined little boys summoned their super powers and...
Gabriel, tackled Yayo while Alberto took care of business with their dad...
There was some serious splishing and a-splashing going on when
Mommy Mayra came over to calm the waters
and said, "ENOUGH!!! NO ONE is going to have the floater.... BUT ME"
Well... they sure weren't going to argue with her!
After all she sure deserves a relaxing moment...
and little Gabriel even gave her a hug.
At the sight of this tender family moment,
Yayo Pepe, decided it was time for a nice family photo to remember this day by...
But the first shot was a flop...
Then came another shot, but Mayra's arm and part of Raul's face
just didn't quite make a good family photo...
He tried once more and got Mayra and Raul
but... uh... the kids well... no comment.
They all thought a more conventional photo would be easier.
And Mayra started by organizing the kids by size...
Anyone else would have given up, but Mayra kept up the hard work...
Even when some wanted to abandon the "ship"!
But by golly they finally got it...
Yes, they got the "good enough" family photo to remember
a fun day at Aquopolis!!!
