We moved out of the condo, into the Ritz!!! (there were so many NATO families moving into the area, they offered a great deal) for a couple of nights, and then into our house. We've upacked, arranged, rearranged, gone to Ikea, found the giant hardware store, and even entertained new friends. Pictures are being hung, and the kids love the pool - so glad we kept that promise.
At the Ritz - Penha Longa, with new SFN friends for dinner in the Presidential Suite.
The kids at their own table - those are actual, real smiles - the whole group
of kids get along great and like each other!
The house - Casa das Meadows
My wagon peaking out from the bushes.
Room for the hoop, drying wetsuits, and Barney.
Celebrating summer Swedish-style.... crayfish, caviar, and aquavit.
On the 14th Zach and Lauren presented me with some wonderful gifts and an audience of many.
HOUSE PICS
Looking down the entryhall to the front door.
La cozhina.
Dining room, living room. Lots of white.
And the best part of this whole experience so far!!!
Out on the town, Friday, August 17th (Happy Birthday MOM!) - with our SFN friends.
