When Mammy and Pappy came to visit: Sunday to Wednesday

Sunday:

What a wonderful lunch we had at Monte del Mar! This time it was Jean-Paul and Rita giving us our birthday treat, and it was fantastic.



Poor Margaux was still having teething issues and was upset a lot until she completely crashed in Daddy's arms... such an angel.
 



Monday:

Monday morning I took Margaux with me to training and then we spent the afternoon with Maria Rosa. We met up with Jean-Paul and Rita at dinner, however, where Rita cooked us a sumptuous meal.


Tuesday:

Rita and Jean-Paul joined Margaux and me at Mums and Tots on Tuesday morning. Unfortunately I was in charge of directions so it took us a much longer time than expected to reach our destination. It was nice to spend some time with them in a different environment, although I think Jean-Paul was a bit at a loss for where to put himself!

Tuesday night was a special one for all of us. I headed out with most of the Mums I know here for dinner at Pateo de Petisco, which was great!

The rest of the family spent some precious, purely French-speaking time with our star attraction for Jean-Paul and Rita's last night with us.


Wednesday:

And all too soon it was over! By the time Mammy and Pappy's trip had ended my French had improved dramatically (relatively speaking) as had their English. We all had a thoroughly wonderful time.

Au revoir... until the next visit!
