Making a Splash!

Less than 5 months left, do we buy one..or not? That is the question we ask ourselves whenever we are tempted to buy something here. Our time here is quickly drawing to a close and so, everything we buy will soon have to be sold or hauled back to the US.

So do we..or don't we? But with the intense heat, we finally decided to buy our first, and last, kids pool. We figured that with no rain and only intense heat for the next 3 months, it would get lots of use.

So we managed to squeeze in the pool into our tiny space of a patio, amidst the plants and drying clothes. The boys love it and spend most of their time playing and splashing. Sebastian isn't too sure yet...he's not a water lover like his brothers. But with the temperature already climbing into the 90's and only threatening to get worse in the coming months, it was definitely worth it.
