More Cycling!!!

After a wonderfully slow LOUD morning (my favourite short girls, Jara and Keri are extremely l0ooouuudddd!!!) Wikke and the kids and I rode into the centre of town and went to the markets.  We wandered for hours, had a wonderful lunch, and rode home.  F and Merlijn spent the day with their arms around each other.  Sweet.  They've really missed each other.



H tried to jump over a pole!  OW!

"The Beehive"

My favourite short girls on the Carousel

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Hugo, his Dad, Wikke's parents and her brother were working all day on the "family build" (a term H made up to describe the renovation of Wikke and Hugo's new home).  We're staying with them across the road and everybody is looking extremely exhausted and paint-covered.  They're doing a fantastic job though.  The house is going to be spectacular.

Finally.... FINALLY.... my boys got to see "Kung Fu Panda" tonight!  It seems that we've missed it everywhere we've been (and everybody else has already seen it!) and they have really been wanting to see it.  Wikke and I put all the kids back on the bikes (except Jara who rides in a bike car, and F who wanted to ride on the back of my bike) and cycled 20 mins to the cinema.  

Worth my sore and aching knees!
