Even more difficult to determine what day it is when traveling! I am missing DH especially since I can't talk to him easily with the time change. He had a good day watching his granddaughter pitch in softball yesterday and taking his eldest daughter out for dinner.
We gave less well SIL a day of rest yesterday and she looked so much better last night. Still eating like a bird but at least she is eating something beyond a few crackers. Other SIL and I did a lot of walking until the heat got to be too much. We had to go to the Apple Store to get her iPhone fixed which apparently had the VoiceOver feature inadvertently turned on at a higher speed than usual so it sounded garbled. So weird! But then DSD met us in that area and we hopped around a couple of places shopping and got drinks at the rooftop bar at the Four Seasons. Very nice - expensive drinks, but free snacks in a nice environment. At that point in the day it was too hot to be fully outside but we did go to the outside area before we left to take pictures. Dinner at a place specializing in Paella (pictures below) - very good and seemed like a local's spot!
So the weather is weird to us. On the east coast of the US, the heat usually peaks in the early to mid-afternoon. Here the peak is at 7 pm. So it is actually not bad up until about 1 but then really heats up. It was 103 at 7 pm last night. I guess that is because the sun doesn't set until after 10 pm!
This morning we are going to an outdoor market (well SIL, DSD, and I). The wheelchair gets delivered at 10. This afternoon we have tickets at the Prado.

Ooooh - maybe you should JFDI!

Get those calories up! Funny that both you and I had the same thought about Kirby potentially making strides in the lake.

We had the cart driver/tour director stop at one point so I could buy 3 large water bottles!

These guys make you laugh with those big toothy grins!

You must be looking forward to getting to Michigan before it gets too much hotter there. Maybe Kirby will swim in the lake there and really get over his water fear.

I am. The thought of 3 days with Kirby in the car is more than I can endure! Hopefully he does some swimming!
Well hell, I went and looked at that open house. It is a dream with an ocean view. And probably doable financially. Crap. Now what?

p.s. At my lowest weight - 117- after the sleeve I stopped the weight loss by eating a large spoonful of peanut butter every evening. It worked.
