An Afternoon of Sightseeing
After a 3D movie at the theater I took the kids to the bridge. This is a relatively new attraction here in Cochabamba. It connects the Cine Center with a lovely section of town called the Recoleta which are separated by a river and a highway. The Recoleta has bunches of good restaurants, ice-cream and [...]
Tuesday Tip #27 – Guinea Pig Heritage

The common prayer of the impatient person is, “God, give me patience. Now!” Even the most sincere pleas for patience are dangerous prayers. Why are they dangerous?

Kid Vids Links
My new fun thing to do is edit videos. I still have much to learn but this week I did some videos of my kiddos. They planned the content. If you would like to check them out here are the links. (If these links are not working please alert me to that fact.)
