Andres woke for an early feed again, but went to sleep again soon after. We did put him down a bit too soon, as he vomited a bit on his sheets. We made the same mistake after his next feed, putting him down too soon after feeding – we put him on our bed to play for a bit while getting ready, but he rolled onto his stomach and then vomited over it (quite a bit this time), so we had to ask the cleaning staff to change the sheets on both beds.
After breakfast we caught a taxi to a large shopping a short drive away called ChipiChape. We spent the morning wandering around looking at the stores and then stopped for lunch at the food court. Andres was quite content sitting in the Ergo carrier – he even fell asleep for a while. Before we left, we stopped in one of their large supermarkets and did some shopping, supplies for us plus some general toiletries we are going to take to the orphanage as a donation later this week.
It was good to get out of the hotel for a while and stretch our legs. Now that we are more comfortable with Andres (and more importantly, he is more comfortable with us), and we have a better feel for his eating, sleeping (and pooping!) habits, we are going to try and get out a bit more to see more of this interesting city.
