Halloweeeeeeeeeen! Boo!

We went to a cool party in a place called Nippa Hut lots of our friends went. They had so many sweets and cakes and crazy spiders, toads, monsters and games .. and then more sweets. Mum made us drink water for the whole next day in case we turned into lollypops!

We went in the Car
hmm so many sweets, so little time :)

Not quite Halloween

There's no half term in Spain for Halloween - which didn't matter so much as we got our first chill in the air. So after school we played in doors and waited until we could open our chocolate pumpkins

At home ... taking a break from playing with Transformers!
yummmm

Paddle surfing

Sunny day Sunday!  Hip hip horray!
When there's no wind.  You just get a paddle and go!
Hayley and Maisy

Hey Troy!  ... on the waves not the sand! 

Even mum's doing it ... (but check the waves .. not like they're big or anything!)  

Hayley and Mum

Even the small wave can knock down the castles

Maisy and Georgie


The sea was so clear .. that there were dolphins swimming near by!  It was just the best day.  It's still hard to believe we have school the next day!

Napoleon

The castle in Tarifa had invaders this weekend! 
Long ago the Guzman el Bueno Castle in the town became home to Spanish troops, who, along with the British, defended the tower from Napoleon's army in 1811-1812.
So today they reenacted the battle.  It was reeeeally loud!

stopping for a chocolate milk 

.. so good she wanted it back! .... 

She couldn't catch us here ... 

... but someone else did ... 


Can you see us. Hayley found a giant lizard here ...

On our way to Swimming

On our way to our swimming class, Troy took my bike and cycled!  All on his own.  
Me and mummy couldn't believe it! (woops can you see what happened when Troy cycled behind the tree!)

Now we can cycle to swimming all the time.  More fun than taking the car ..

Me - Hayley

And Troy .. waving :)

Farm Feria

We went to see the Farm Fair at the end of town. The bulls were 'ginormous'. The goats started fighting - which was a bit scary, but the horses were so lovely. It was great to see them all so close up.


So big his horns wouldn't fit in our picture
