Nia and Caden came with Romel

Nia and Caden came to Tarifa to visit.  They took their Dad Romel.  We did loads of stuff.  But first thing we went to the Dune.  For any of you who've visited - you know we always go there .. but hasn't it changed.  It's just blowing away.  Up and into the forest behind!

Thanks Salóme your bum's in the picture!	Ohhh I'm so tired.  Will you carry me someone!
We can do it!	Romel to the rescue!

Troy, Caden and Mum went on a massive walk leaving Nia and Hayley to play dolls .. for 5 hours must be a record!	The girls still playing dolls.  We played football...
We drove them to the bus station after a great weekend.	Come again guys!

Mini Christmas

Mum, Hayley and Troy went to the mountains to have a mini Christmas because we were off to France with our Dad and Annabelle for Christmas. 

We skied down this mountain!

This was our teacher on our first day.	After our lessons we went up to the top on the chair lift.  Cool!
Uli Jr and Leo were there too .. so we hooked up!	Because it was a mini Christmas .. we had presents!  Yeayy

Piratas .. Bruno's Birthday

Bruno's mum Carole did a big big party for Bruno.  It was in the theme of Pirates of the Caribbean.   There were treasure maps and treasure troves, mermaids and monsters.  It was really cool.  We took alot of pictures!

Bubbles

Who knows why .. we don't.  But we were hanging out on the beach and saw something was up at the chiringuito just near our house... it was unbuilding itself for the winter .. so decided to fill itself with bubbles.   It was just THE coolest time.    Mum couldn't find us even when we were right beside her :)
