I went for a run to Valparaiso and felt SO great until I ran straight into the seaside fish market. I turned around and ran home to avoid puking, but saw some cool things along the way.

I planned it out so that when I got home, Balty and Priscilla would be at Balty's soccer game. I came home sweaty and ready to perfect my diaper cake. Valentina was home, but that was a good thing because she lit the gas so that I could take a hot shower :)
Around 2, Valentina came into my room and said VAMOS! My plan was slightly ruined, and since Prisclla wasn't even home, I couldn't give her the cake. Valentina flagged down a colectivo for the two of us and we cruised to Vaparaiso to Priscilla's mom's house (crazy abuelita). I wish I could have taken a million pictures of the house- it was unbelievably cool. It's old, overlooks all of Valpo and Vina, is bright blue, has HUGE rooms, and squeaks when you walk around.
After enjoying a lunch prepared by crazy abuelita, Balty and I went skateboarding! Then, he took me to a museum but unfortunately, it was closed. Dont forget, Balty is only 7. We went back to the house and Priscilla and I took a nap. After we woke up, I played with their dog, Tommy...I wish I could keep him.

I got to meet a lot of really nice people tonight, and feel so much closer to my family. I am always happy to overhear Priscilla telling her friends that I am good at Spanish, and it happened a lot tonight. I left earlier than the rest of my family and got a ride home. Now- I'm laying in bed and can barely keep my eyes open. I will give Priscilla the cake tomorrow, and that's the perfect plan. She's going to love it.
Until tomorrow,
Lesley
