Some pictures!

Ellie Grace and Harrison have been taking the own pictures.  Hopefully, internet speed allowing, I will create separate google photo albums for their pictures, because they give a glimpse of what interested them and helped them bide their time along the Way.  Here are some glimpses of the last three days.

Breakfast of champions – I’m getting pretty used to the meats, cheeses, tomato toast, and café con leche each morning for breakfast (desayano).   Although a few green vegetables will be lovely also.   We have not seen lots of those – the best by far was in Rua De Francos where we had a great mixed green salad with apples and oranges.   That was part of our delicious Easter dinner that included scrambled eggs and mushroom saute, lobster paella, caramelized crepes, chocolate lava cake, and cheese cake.   Also have enjoyed the bocadillos crusty bread sliced with sausage or chorizo or prosciutto and sometimes queso inside.   These are not sandwiches.   Sandwiches are made with sliced bread we would recognize.    One disappointment was our attempts at ordering patatas bravas – turns out that is French fries.
