We are IBMers (too)

And after the park (and a nap, of course) we went to the office to pick up papa.  It was our second time there already so this time they did not even ask for the badge :-) We are IBMers !!!

The office was half empty so we truly enjoyed running up and down the corridors, picking up all the phones we could find and messing up mom & dad's desks.

Is true that there are no trains, cars or toys in the office but everybody was so nice that I think Manuel & I will soon send our CVs !

Best-park-ever

There are plenty of things Manuel and I love from Prague but one of them is that in every corner there is a playground. And don't just think that I mean any kind of playground.... I have never seen parks and playgrounds like this !!!

Today was bank holiday and papa had to work so Manuel and I got ready for a day @ the park with mom. We met there with Guillermo, Caterina, Alana and (my beloved) Emma.

When we arrived I could not believe my eyes. There were like 5 different playgrounds in one !!!! One area was made of wood with plenty of bridges, steps and ropes.... another area had sand and a waterwheel... then another for climbing...

We just played everywhere but there was so much to do that we need to bring dad another day so that we can get to see everything.

 By noon we were really hungry so really enjoyed the lunch box with pasta carbonara that mama brought to the playground. Well... specially Manuel !!! you don't believe me? watch the video...

Buenos días exploradores !!!

Good morning exploradores!!!

Here Manuel reporting from mom & dad's bed :-)

And, what can be better than having a lazy start of the day with loads of games, cuddles and a bottle of milk?



As mom and dad don't even remember how to set the alarm clock anymore I am the one in charge to make sure everyone gets up early on the house. And... after drinking my milk (pronto!) I am ready for some cuddles.

By then, Danielcito is already aware that the party is on and has already joined us in bed. Here you have a picture of the two of us with papa and another one of the two of us alone.

I really love this nice time when the 4 of us laugh, hug and do silly things.

We have so much fun together !!!!

A long weekend in the Bavarian Forest

Do you guys know what is a Baby & Kinder Bio-resort? We didn't either but just went to one this weekend and, trust us, it is pretty cool !

We had a long weekend here in Prague so off we went to Ulrichshof in the Bavarian Forest with our friend Alana. We just LOVED it from the moment we arrived. A swing, a playground with slides and around 15 Bobby cars... and all of that just in the reception area !

We also had a lot of fun in the indoor pool. Not that we were unlucky with the weather but... who can say no to a great pool with a biiiiiiig slide? Manuel also showed his bravest side and went for a ride but have to say that Mom, Dad, Luis & Virginie were not really suffering either!

Another thing we loved was the farm opposite the hotel were we spent a lot of time visiting the cows and also the pigs. Was great to see them eat and Alana and I had a lot of fun singing 'Old MacDonald' while we chased a little cat and played hide & seek with the cows.

During the evening we also had a great time at the playground. Actually, yesterday was witches-night in Bavaria so we all got together around the fire to play games and sing.

But the highlight of the trip was the pony ride (well, that and the surprise visit of Oma & Opa). I was assigned to Paco, a lovely little pony who was really nice but, believe me, didn't look that little from my position.

Still, I took a breath and off I went with my best cowboy smile. In the end I did pretty well and looks like the one who had more troubles was mom trying to keep Paco from eating every branch we passed :-)

 Well, we could tell you maaaaaaany stories about the great weekend we just had so, instead, here you have some more pictures and a couple of videos so that you judge by yourselves !

Playmobiland... here we come !

Do you like Playmobil? If you do, you will be real jealous when I tell you what we did today.

Yes ! we went to Playmobiland ! or should I say Playmobilheaven?

We first went to the indoor playground and could barely believe all the cool toys I saw there. And we could just play with everything ! I loved playing with the police helicopter while Marcel had a lot of fun parking all the ambulances.

I even played a football match with papa who, according to the picture, seemed to enjoyed even more than I did !

But what I really enjoyed was the Zoo. Marcel and I played there for a looooong time but I just couldn't get away from all the animals there.

Zebras, Lions, Panda bears, penguins, elephants, giraffes,... There was even a Kangaroo and when I looked into the bag... Surprise ! there was a baby kangaroo inside :-)



It was very very cold but we couldn't miss the chance to go for around in the park. So many things to see !

I really loved the lake with the pirate boat and Papa even took Marcel and I for a round in the raft. Must confess that I was a bit scared, not because of daddy's sailing skills (even if he managed to 'park' the other way round) but that thing was really moving a lot !

So I decided to play it safe and enjoyed the tour seating down while Marcel helped papa like a professional cabin boy.


The Farm was also a favorite so I really enjoyed climbing up the straw, feeding the horses and washing the cows.

Have to say that Old MacDonald is a lucky guy... I wouldn't mind having a farm of my own :-)

And the best of all? that Playmobiland is just 20 minutes away from Oma & Opa's house so I am definitively planning to visit again soon !

Osterblog

Here we are, reporting Easter from lovely Bayern !

Yes, we have come to celebrate Easter in Neumarkt with Oma, Opa and... Marcel too !!!

Easter is great in Germany. Egg painting.... nest hunting.... baking... There is so much to do here !!!

Everybody is very busy but, let us tell you that it is totally worth the effort because, at the end of a hard day.... there is always a chocolate bunny waiting for you :-)

Yesterday, for example, Marcel and I spent the morning painting our Easter eggs. Isn't it fun? I wanted to paint mine blue but in the end Oma convinced me to use some other colors too :-)

Mom nearly had a crisis when she saw me later because have to confess that my hands were even more colorful that the Easter eggs ha ha ha :-)

When we go back to Prague I am going to take one of these coloring bags with me and I am going to organize an egg painting playdate.

Cis, Albert, Guillermo and Camille are going to love it !

Manuel also enjoyed watching some train cartoons on telly with Marcel.

He is too small to do the egg painting but I am sure he is going to have a lot of fun tomorrow with the nest hunting.

That's the good thing about Easter time in Germany... that there is an activity for everybody !

Ah ! and something elese really nice happened yesterday too.... Abuelo and Abuela are finally in La Coruna so now we can really talk a lot on Skype. I am sure they miss the ship, and the food, and all those wonderful places they have seen but... we are so happy they are back ! Os queremos mucho abuelos :-)
