Thursday was a day of rest for us after traveling since Sunday we needed
to be able to sleep as long as we wanted and not have any plans. Everyone slept in late and then woke up to
enjoy some mate. The kids decorated the
Christmas tree and then enjoyed their time in the pool. Other than that, we
didn’t do anything. I was so tired I didn't take many pictures on this day...
On Friday, I finally had enough energy to go in the pool myself. German’s sister and niece came over and
joined us for the afternoon. Since the
weather was going to be in the 100’s for the weekend we didn’t make any plans
other than to stay at the house and enjoy the pool with family. We did make a quick trip to the supermarket
for snacks and food for a couple days. On Friday night they fried up some
empanadas for dinner and we sat outside once it cooled down a little.
Saturday was pretty much the same except more family members came over
for the day. German’s brother-in-law
dropped off pastries for us in the morning and then came back later in the
afternoon. The pastries were delicious
(for those of us who woke up early enough to get the good ones) with the mate. In the afternoons, I would go inside and lay
down for a bit (whether I slept or not) because it was so hot outside. On Saturday evening, we went to the Plaza de
Navidad (Christmas Plaza) and to see the Posadas coastline at nighttime. We enjoyed some French Fries and the
views. It was great to get out and see the city for
a bit.
On Sunday, we had another pool day with the family. German’s brother Diego arrived early to help
him roast the lamb all day long. We had
an amazing asado for lunch and hung out all day long. This was the last day of weather in the 100’s
that felt like it was 115 or so. I
didn’t mind the heat as much as the direct sunlight. I stayed out of the sun today since I was
already burnt to a crisp. Everyone else
was suffering with the heat while I walked around in my jeans. German and Matthew went and picked up Pizza
and Empanadas for dinner.
