Easter walk

We have Easter Eggs. The girls were thrilled and all brought out their best decorating talents.
Ashley demonstrated did the double dip, Alina showed us how to shrink wrap the wrapers and Alessia carefully made the little stands. Just as we were winding down Alessia spotted the stickers and off we went again, Augh!! Look at this!! and Wow!!!
Our kitchen is small, We only have one chair at the table. All five of use were in here. Not to mention the eighteen eggs, two decoration kits and three cameras.
This morning they will find the eggs all gone. Hidden about the flat by the Easter Papa! Each one found will be worth a ransom price of five rmp.
Yesterday was a beautiful day outside with sunshine and a high all the way up to 60. The city is turning on the fountains in the parks and squares and we went out walking. A friend of Alina who she has not seen since her mother died joined us and we called another young man we knew to help with translating. We walked to McDonalds were I let the two of the young people wait in the Mob (they do not use lines) to get lunch. One popped out to flash with fingers how much more money they needed. We had a lot of food, something gained in translation I think. One person threw a stubborn fit over not the right sauce and went back to the mob to fix it only to find upon returning that chicken nuggets are not entirely safe when left alone near me. No translation needed.
We went to Kophe shops, clothes shops, bike shops, open air market, parks, squares, buss rides, a mall (twice), bought souvenirs and had a great time. Sometimes we were tired and “I can't make it” was heard, other times it was “come on I want to go see this” Some of us came home with blisters. It was what we had and we saw the town.
