It was a darn good weekend. Most of the teachers were at a conference and as Lisa had to attend as well I stayed back in Caracas to mind the children. After work we walked down to Yogurtlandia- which is quite a nice way to start of a weekend.
On our way back from Yogurtlandia we stopped by micelandia and well you know... the next day we had been talked into adding new mammals to the Isom clan: reepicheep and peanut.

Sunday was another hike in the Avila and true to form you just never know what might turn up. After leaving the main path to follow a little side trail we came upon a small (taller than me) solid gold statue! If I can just figure out how to get this thing onto my pack I will have retirement settled.
Us: "Bueno dia"
Him: "Bueno dia"
Us: "Como estas?"
Him: "very good"
After our hike we stopped at Tarzilandia for lunch- they had turtle pie on the menu but we opted for a big plate of meat- cool old school spot to check out.
To cap off the weekend I went over to Paul's house for the Bronco game- this has to be the absolute best deck for kicking back, having a beer, and watching football in Caracas... and of course the Broncos won and are heading to the Superbowl- darn good weekend.
Hola Isoms!
ReplyDeleteWe love following your blog , especially from Mexico. Lisa, Greg says that he completely gets your fears of heavy surf and swimming in open water. Feels a lot more like survival than swimming. Even with a relatively small swell in Puerto Escondido, the beach break is heavy and unforgiving. We did find a beach nearby where we can play and the kids can ride their boogie boards. Wilder, I gave Caleb your message from your most recent email. Send him a direct message on his blog page, and I'm sure he'll get back to you. I think he'd really enjoy it, and getting him communicating takes a little prodding. Sorry we missed you all at the holidays, and hope to overlap this summer?!
