L'Amazonie par Karen En Amazonie on est allé à Cuyabeno au Jamu Lodge .  Pour y aller on a dû prendre un bus de nuit privé (23h-5h45) après on a dû attendre 3 longues heures dans un restaurant. Finalement le bus est arrivé et on a du faire un voyage de 2 heures pour aller au point rassemblement pour prendre les bateaux, ce voyage a duré 2 heures. Quand on est arrivée c’était 15h, on a pu se reposer. A 17h ce fut notre première activité, on a vu des dauphins roses et nous nous sommes baigné dans La Laguna Grande au coucher du soleil. On a vu des caïmans en rentrant. Nous avons rencontré deux personnes françaises, Julie et Martin, ils étaient très gentils et il nous accompagné pendant ces trois jours. Notre guide s’appelait Sulema. Le 2ème jour on a fait une balade dans le foret, on a vu des fourmis qui portait des petit bout de feuilles on a aussi vu des singes. Nous sommes rentrés en ramant, c’était quand même fatiguant. L’après-midi de nouvell...

Seems like eternity since we left our home to start this family adventure. My youngest daughter, Erin, expressed how she misses her bed and her stuff toys. I miss everything in Grand Lancy but the thought of visiting countries as a family truly excites me. We have reserved our accommodations till the end of the month thru AirBnB and two hotels. Three down and 3 to go. Breakfast in the Pousada Pouso Feliz consisted of bread, tapioca pancake, cheese, ham, cakes, guava juice and coffee. Issues Our main concern is the phone.

TextNow didn’t function well in my phone, lost half of my chats/messages in WhatsApp trying to reinstall it so that I can use both application. Thankfully, Carlo’s attempt didn’t work out and he was able to keep all his chats/msg. His phone subscription is until the end o...

The heatwave in Lisbon was a good excuse to try out the girls’ very first lesson. Their materials given by the  school   directress and teacher Vero, were scanned and saved in a USB key. My husband also saved it in the   drive . Karen was given the task to read  Jean de Florette  by  Marcel Pagnol  and Erin has her french lesson. Frankly speaking they were motivated  because of the recompense afterwards. I guess we need to find a solution to this 🙂 and create a better schedule for their lesson. Why Jean de Florette? Before our trip, we have packed some books to be sent to  my home country  and didn’t realize that the girls did not pack any for our travels. There are card games and 4 other games to keep them occupied but not books. Pagnol ‘s Jean de Florette and  Manon des Sources  were supposed to be my “travel book” along with  Joël Dicker ‘s but teacher husband thought that the former will do for now until...
