Mission Accomplished


We got Jonah to ride in the backpack yesterday! We went down and walked on the beach so the wind would drown out his wails. He cried for about 15 minutes and then appreared to realized that it is actually pretty sweet to be carted around on someone's back with your hands free to play with sea shells. We are going to give it a shot again today and see if he can do it without crying. We really want the flexibility to use it for the remainder of the time in the city.

Nothing to report on the visa. If it does not come through by the end of this week, Jonah, Betsy and Bea will be staying longer than we had planned and Livi and I will be coming home.

Kite Surfing is AWESOME. I am not speaking from personal experience, just from a spectator standpoint. This is a mecca for kite surfers and they are all up and down the coast.

Not much else to report around here....just still playing the waiting game.

Betsy said to say, "GO VIKES!"

Happy to hear Jonah is adapting. I love to hear of your victories. I've seen the set jaws of Betsy and Ryan Beach---the boy will end up LOVING that backpack, and you can quote me. :)

Mitch is busy destroying the carefully laid train track his mother just finished. I say this to let you know Jonah will enjoy all the action at the Welge home.

Love to Livi. Tell her she's a champ. Ana reads these with me and REALLY wants Livi to come home so they can play Peter Pan together. I call first dibs on Hook.

Love you all. Fond slap on the rear to Beata.
