Day 23 – Still Following the Cow

Sunday lunch was supposed to be at a waterpark, but Enrique decided to take us back to the town of Rozo to the restaurant Siga la Vaca again. We were the only family who had been there previously, the Americans weren’t here when we visited a couple of weeks back. We didn’t mind – we quite enjoyed it there and Andres loved the pool and jumping on the trampoline with the older kids.

We sat Nicol in the water again and she seemed to really enjoy herself, splashing and kicking her legs. She didn’t seem to mind getting splashed occasionally too.

Lunch was the usual overly-large servings, my chicken schnitzel type dish seemed to use an entire chicken and would have been enough to feed a family of four!

Leanne's "Baby Beef" - huge slice of meat. Very tender though.
My chicken - I'd already eaten less than half of it ... I didn't eat much more - couldn't fit it in! I didn't eat much for dinner that night either
Nicol looks at me innocently, after chomping on some leaves she plucked from the garden hedges

    Great photos. Nicol looks so relaxed and happy with her new family.
    Andres will be the star pupil when he returns to swimming lessons!

    Lovely photos of the children. Yummy looking food too – brings back memories of Spain.
