Today, we had fun outdoors! It was my host mom, the little girl and my new friend Eric on this adventure, since the little boy was at school and host dad was at work. We visited more parks and playgrounds. We played on the playground, took a walk through the woods, played peek-a-boo in the trees and saw some pretty spring flowers that are popping up everywhere. At our second park, we took pictures in a place that is known as a favorite for local family photo shoots.
After our second park, everyone was tired and wanted to go home, but host mom said we had errands to run and said we could play a game in the car to have fun. We watched for American flags flying along our route...when you see a flag flying, you shout "Flag!". The little girl is very good at this game and likes it a lot. She wanted to get a picture of Eric and I with a flag, since this is our first visit to the USA, it only seems appropriate to have a picture with the American flag! It is not a great picture, but hopefully we can get a better one another day. There are lots of flags flying. Many businesses have a flag in front of their business and many personal homes have one flying in their yard, too.
It's been a long day, I'm going back to my comfy spot in the Easter basket for some rest!
