The market was a busy dusty afair. i unfortunately didn't take my camera. We spent most of our time looking at cheap toys, and Liam bought a Lightning Mcqueen car that plays a Mexican rock tune over and over again. He calls it his radio. I'm about to throw it away! Ben bought this lovely cowbay hat which he now wears everywhere. He didn't want to go biking yesturday as he had to take his new hat off, and wear his helmet.
The other photo is of our lane. The sea is at the end of it. The weather has been quite windy, and, while not cool, not scorching either; not warm enough to encourage a swim in the ocean. There is a hotel around the corner that OK'ed us using their pool for a price. So, I've got that activity in my back pocket for when the boys need something really fun to do.
Dad, Loreto is definately not a small village. I think the population is 15,000. Tim, thanks for the link to the math site. I think I will have Ben look at the fraction lessons, though they are very short and basic.
Short and basic is probably a good start for fractions. Ben, the hat looks terrific. How are you getting on with your neighborhood friends? What about you Liam? Do the kids play the same sorts of games you play in Seattle?
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your trip down the coast. We made part of that trip last summer so I got to relive it with you. I love Ben's hat and Liam looks like he is enjoying himself. I hope you are too!
ReplyDeleteHi Ben -- next in line, cowboy boots and then a pony for your stay in Loreto? And Liam, how are you doing? Are you starting to understand a bit of Espanol talking with the boys down the street. Maybe you could teach Lotte a little espanol. Sit? Fetch? Good girl?

Kelly,
ReplyDeleteHELLO! How's Loyal Heights? What's Jacob doing in math right now? I'm not having an easy time teaching equivalent fractions.
I thoguht of you in the Redwood forest when we drove through the tree. I think you said your car was too big. I folded in our side veiw mirrors so we could fit.

ReplyDeletei got a sanging car whach sangs a funy song
Hi Sarah,
ReplyDeleteWe're all getting ready for the auction on Saturday. I think I'd rather be in Mexico :) Jacob's class is working on equivalent fractions too. I don't envy you having to teach them. It's hard enough just helping! Yes our van was too big to fit through the tree so we had to walk. Someday we'll go again in a much smaller car. I'm enjoying reading your blog. thanks for sharing!
