Happy Easter

Well this week's been pretty average. Working. Getting headaches from the noisy kids. Hanging out with friends. The usual.

The most interesting thing, really, to happen this week is that on Wednesday we started an after school English class for kids at a different school. They didn't really seem to know much English so we definitely have our hands full. Through songs, games and board cartoons we managed to teach something to them. And they enjoyed picking their sticker when they'd finished their posters. It was really nice. We have loads of ideas of things to do with them so we're really looking forward to the coming weeks.

Yesterday was Easter. As we were told you say "feliz pascua del conejo" for Happy Easter. I hope that's right. Sometimes our friends get cheeky and teach us the wrong Spanish so that they can laugh when we say something wrong. We did a lot of baking this weekend. Sadly we left our first batch of cookies in the oven for about 10 seconds too long and they were reduced to blackened rocks. Not surprisingly, the family declined when offered one. 

After a big Sunday lunch with the family, we went to the park to meet up with our friends. General silliness ensued. We took rocky road and cookies and our friends brought milk so we had a great little picnic. Here's a few pictures to finish off this little blog.

These are our two faithful street dogs who are always around to welcome us home from work

I swear that dogs not dead


These are the sort of Easter eggs you get here. Either that or tiny little eggs. But the chocolate's not really that tasty.
