Catching Up...

July 2

I finally swam in the Mediterranean.  The water wasn't cold.

I got a weapon at Carcassonne.  The game Carcassonne is named after the town Carcassonne.  Cool!

We toured the castle, which had lots of ways to defend itself.  It even had a drawbridge which is now just a bridge.

The other day we looked at three boats.  The second was the most useful because it had a button to press to tell rescuers in case someone fell overboard.

Now we are in Spain eating lunch.

Daddy and I swam naked in a very cold river.  There was no one around, though, except Mommy.  It was fun, but I was afraid someone would come.  I wasn't afraid of the current and Daddy was right there with me.

We looked at another boat today.  I still might have to go with Boat #2 from Saturday because of the button.  Buttons are becoming one of my favorite things.

Last night I slept in a castle that was built by Arabs a thousand years ago.  I am staying up ridiculous hours every night and my dad falls asleep before I do.  People in Spain eat dinner very late, like at 9:00.

You should know about the foods I've tried, like this thing I ate at dinner last night but we don't know what it is.

Right now we are sailing on the boat that we saw this morning.  The people who are showing the boat are taking us out so we can see what the boat feels like on the water.  The boat also has an automatic pilot.
