Start of the School Year

First day of school!

This year vacation must have felt a lot longer than last, as the kids were ready and willing to go to school. No bumps taking them to different schools. Agustín went to Paulo Friere and Nicolás to Freedom. Agucho couldn't wait to start his new school - and surprise! Six kids, including his best friend David, from Freedom! After he saw his friends he forgot I was even there.

Daddy and Grandma went with Nicolás, but he, too, was excited to see his school again and all his friends from last year.


There was an opening ceremony. All the teachers presented themselves - some gave speeches in English! - and it was not too long and quite nice. Pick up today is early - 11 o'clock, so soon I will be able to hear directly from Agustín what he thought about his new school.

Here's to a new school year!
