Another sunny day

We have been so blessed with sunny days! We are well aware that it's the rainy season and sun is a rare occurrence right now. Today was beautiful - and made more so by the minimal traffic in Bogota on Sundays. Every Sunday, Bogota closes miles of roads for Cyclovia. Cyclovia promotes cycling and other outdoor exercise by closing many streets from 7am - 2pm. We joined the people and walked! We went to Usaquen to the flea market, which is filled with wares from local artists. I know we'll be going back there and will describe it in more detail later. Since it took an hour to get there (that's a long walk at 8600 ft elevation!), we took a taxi back to the hotel. Isabella was hungry when we got in the taxi so she ate while we were in the taxi. Something about the bottle or being in the taxi didn't agree with her, and as soon as we got back to the room, she vomited all over me. Not spit up - full on projectile vomit. It was inside my bra. I wish we'd grabbed the camera and taken a picture - it was that memorable. She went down for a nap and I took a shower!

One of the great things about sunny days here is that clothes on the line dry really quickly. The hotel has washers for guests to use, but no dryers, so all clean laundry is line dried. The lines are sheltered from the rain, but things dry quickest on sunny days.

When Isabella woke up she was hungry, and Esteban wanted to help feed her. He held her on his lap and helped me hold the bottle. It was such a beautiful late afternoon that we walked to the park that is a few blocks away to visit the playground. We were amazed at how many people were there! The playground was mobbed!

Once again, the kids were asleep by 7:30 (Isabella) and 8:20 (Esteban) so we can hope for a decent night's sleep for all of us.

I was going to post a short video of our girl in action but it's 3 MB larger than Google allows, so I'll have to shoot a slightly shorter one tomorrow.
