Salóme and Jossy

Sometimes it's hard to believe we're so lucky - and today with the weather! Amazing!
Today our friend Jossy came over with her dog Salóme and her friend Tito.  So after school we went for a big walk all the way to the river ... and back.  Wonderful. 


Tito, Salóme and Jossy

Hey .. wait for us!



A wonderful November day ..

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!

At home before we set off a Pirate and a witchy chic

Before the treasure hunt begins ..  Bruno in the middle
Wrestling with Carlos and Juan
Louis and Jago popped by ..
Lilia and Barnaby
At last our maps .. off we go!
Not as easy as we thought...?


The map with Barnaby



We went far and wide - by beach and ...
   
... forest.  Will we ever find the treasure?


       These were some of the Carribbean creatures we met along the way .... they held the clues for our gold.

Calypso - Hayley
Mermaids - Maisy and Alex
Jack Sparrow - Gus
Davy Jones - Raul

Bringing the babies home are . Sophie, Fiona and Carole. 
More cool mums .. Jenny and Nina. 


Thanks so much Carol a great big day!

Churros

mmmmm.
Only when we're REALLY good does mum take us for Churros con Chocolate .. this is like a massive big snake of donut and mealty chocolate to dip it into.   It's too good or as Troy has taken to saying .. it's 'sick man'.   Which means good in his opposite world!

We're in the old town
Oh yes!
The spoon can nearly stand up on it's own it's so thick.
Churros .. donut

Bonfire Pinos

Our friend Georgie came back to Tarifa for a week. So we had to celebrate by going to the Pinos. Even tho' it's October. It's still just lovely weather. How lucky. We cooked potatoes and mealted marshmellows... and watched the sun set.
Nothing like building a fire in the forest!!  Careful!!
