Wandering Mole (1) - Vulcanii Noroiosi

Packing for "the wide road" was an adventure itself, everyone with kids already knows, those with pets are very close to knowing and those who do not have any of these...well...they get to relax more!
And when I thought everything was done, and the last string from the backpack pulled, there comes the question: "What toys can we take?" Hmmm...It took her only a few moments to decide and then we were finally out through the door. And the winner is...the MOLE!

 First stop on our way was in a place very close to where we drive every Summer. Just a couple of miles away from the main road. I don't know why I lived with the impression that my kids are too small for this and that the place wouldn't appeal to them. Well, I was wrong.

Every bubble was cheered in all the languages they've been exposed to. Missy was loud and fun to look at for those around her and although you couldn't hear him that much, he was visibly impressed by "the way they worked".

I was in love with dozens of shades of grey and so many textures on such a small spot. Dry - cracked and melting-flowing were layering everywhere around us.

Hooray for wide spaces,
 for new friends

 and for sweet memories to take with us. Some of us on the boots...
 and others on their knees.

On the road again

On the road again! Same song, new plans, some fears for the days when I'll be alone on the road with two kids for the first time, and full of hopes that everything will turn out just right in the end.
