A Great First Day

We had a great first day full of laughs, smiles, and activity.  There is a park right around the corner from the hotel.  So, after breakfast, we went to the park for awhile and then played back at the hotel, until it was time for lunch.  The food is wonderful here and our kids will be very spoiled by good cooking by the time we come home.  After lunch, we played games, put together puzzles, colored, and used watercolor paints for the first time.  We decided we needed to rest before dinner so we watched a little bit of Mickey Mouse, in Spanish again.  Then we had dinner, took baths, read books, and went to bed.  A busy but great first day!  It was the chef’s birthday, here at the hotel, so our kids made birthday cards for her.  Now it is bedtime for us.  We will post again tomorrow.

  1. Lori,

    The kids are adorable! Thanks for keeping us up to date on your bonding time in Colombia. The food is amazing in Colombia. I hope this next week brings you more smiles, laughs, and hugs!

    We may not be leaving for another few weeks unfortunately, but we should know more tomorrow.
