While dad is in Chiapas

we celebrated Didi's birthday

First cold

Amané always wanted to 

get out the cold, but we never had time on mornings

on usual mornings...

This time walking by,

she asked to do it:

we didn't use our car but she was happy !!

On first cold

I love to go in café and take a chocolat chaud

with her...

Amané did a Wonderfull present !

multiplication

I remember learning my multiplication tables in pain ... I walked for hours in the garden trying to know them by heart ... I never managed to perfectly master my tables of 6, 7, 8 and 9 .....since today !!!!

But Amané's teacher made it fun:

the kids have to be the fastest to answer to win !

She's training with

lulu multiplications

and Cédric gave us

lille ac calculatrice.

Reading Japanese

Amané took too much time to prepare herself...

I went to bathroom, upset !

"-Why aren't you ready yet?

-Well, I'm reading my Japanese books

in hiragana...

-Oups....sorry...go on...!!!"

She can read in hiragana !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

routine

Before going to bed,

reading Roald Dahl autobiography

Whistling while going to school

creates some bubbles in the sky.

At Dada and Didi's house

Went to visit Didi

Eating some oysters !

Playing dames

Bye bye daddy

Papa Yuta

Dada's phone

While Didi is taking a rest at hospital

we took Dada 

to buy her first smartphone,

and went to resto

to celebrate it !

Geocaching

We did our first geocaching

in a beautiful village we didn't know.

We had to solve some questions

about history, architecture, nature around us,

to follow a map,

and then to find the treasure !

We'll make more !

Pilgrim to Soudat

We went to Soudat,

were mamie de la forêt, Gérard and Didi

lived for a long time.

First making sumo 

near the house were Didi was born.

Then a little visit to the cemetery

and a pic Nic with a beautiful view !

Going to the tiny river,

to Didi's school,

to the forest,

to the beautiful fountain...

Sometimes Amané looks really older...!!!!!

And then,

playing "dames"

in front of the house.

Futuroscope

We woke up early to visit the FUTUROSCOPE.

It's an attraction park

on the theme of "new video technologies".

Well, there were too many people (holidays!) so we couldn't do 

all that we have planned,

but we had lot of fun !

While waiting some nice

activities are proposed

We've seen:

-a Wonderfull dynamic Jules Verne's inspirited movie

-a round movie about very quick, very small...

-a round roof movie about chaos in the universe

and at the end Amané did 

lot of open air attraction

like the Vinci merrygoland

A walk near the river

Sun was here !

We went for a walk..

On the way to go Amané and Yuta ran...

and on the way back,

Amané asked us to give her 

some math problems...

She solved them while walking...!!!

Halloween with Tatum

Amané wanted to celebrate Halloween 

since a long time.

Before we did it, creating craft and decorating the house

even with real stuff from Denver (Merci Mélie!!),

or going to eat marshmallow in a cave with Kublah, Charlotte

and their friends.

But what Amané asked for was to go asking

candies at the doors...

So we created lot of decorations 

for the house,

we invited Tatum.

Yuta made a barbecue for marshmallows...

Then the girls learned

the song:

"La sorcière Crabouilla"

and going to the streets,

knocking at the doors:

-"If you give us candies, we'll sing you a song!"

Amané was not shy at all...

They had candies, and cakes, compote, fruit juices.

All the people were happy: they clapped their hands, sang with them, 

said that they were kind....!!

Coming back home Amané 

danced with her too small and old second hand shop costume.

So happy little girl !

Going back to bed,

she said:

"I have to wait 364 days to do it again...."
