Journey home
I'll tell you more about the journey home later. Right I'm uploading 160 or so videos that I couldn't add in before.
(Little update on videos below.) The one with Angel crying is because we were promised a window seat, and then we got one, but there was no actual window. How do you explain to a 6 year old, tired from a huge journey there's nothing you can do. The stewardess tried to help and we asked this lady, but she was very disturbed and said "No, I specifically reserved this seat!" In the end she changed but only if I promised to keep Angel quiet, which of course she was, she's a very good girl and good traveller. Three people, everyone in the row behind us changed...it was very sweet, but one reasone I know the middle lady changed, was because there was a child behind her(later me) kicking the seat. Anyways all was well in the end. (Actually every time we watch this we laugh so hard...So times the best way to debrief a situation I have found, is to record it and let her watch it...we always get a big kick out of it!!!)
The other videos are of Angel playing in a sack, that we would use to take home our stuff because I didn't have money for another suitcase. It worked really well, just an old sugar sack, but I was so pleased to get it. I was worried how I was going to manage, as Angel insisted we bring all her treasures, & toys from Mexico.The other is a birthday party we went to ...that was very nice, but foot was really bothering me, and I got sick after, not sure if it was the pain or medicine or what.
Galo y Lupita singing to Flo on her Birthday! It's to dark to see, but it sounds real pretty.
The boogie board was a huge dilemma and ended up costing more than the pric
e of the board to bring home.

The Bee Doctor
So here's a little video of the Bee Doctor. Angel loves to rescue drowning bees.
I got stung yesterday on the bottom of my foot. Really hurts. Got some bendryl but it's still very swollen. I was just laying by the pool and i guess he was having a little drink of water, and i accidently put my foot on him..and owwwwweeeeeeee! I had a bad sting on my foot 2 years ago in Nelson on the other foot.
Angel on the otherhand, was rescuing a bee yesterday too, but the little thing fell back into the water and then got some ecalyptus oil on it, that i was using for my foot. So she was getting the little guy upset, and he finally stung her on the finger...she's says...ow mom now i got stung.
I am almost certain she did it as an experiment. She shows me her finger and there is this big stinger in it. I pull it out and put her finger in ice. A little while later she's fine.
She says "I don't think i can bee a bee doctor if i get stung " and is about to cry. And i said "Honey, i know that now more than ever before you can, because your not allergic."
This was Angel's first Bee Experience in Nelson the year before.
