Traveling the world with my mom for 4th grade...

Magic Places

Wow, that was a fun day! It seemed to be magical. Let me tell you about it…

Well,  as usaual I woke up and had a long breakfast while I did my school work, I think it was like 3 hours!!!!!! After that went to explore the town and start our fun day!

Ok, we saw a lot of things,but I want to tell you about 2  very magical places we found.

The first place was a store like what I think a store was like in the olden days. It was like going to a store 100 years ago!!!!!! It sold spices, pots, horse whips, brooms, bells, beans and stuff to make all kinds of teas. Huge bags of these things!!!! And this is for G, I found a huge bag filled with lucky beans!!!!!! 

,

Mommy is like ‘WOW!’

smelled so good!!!

Lucky Beans For All!

We bought a big bag of these yummy olives and ate them on our walk home


Ok, the next place was a toy store but IT WAS SO FUN! It seemed different than any toy store I have ever been in. It was a toy store ok, I know you are think it is not so not a big deal and not that fun. But this was magic and it was toys when mommy was a kid and when I am a kid!!!!!!! Everything seemed like it would have been made by Santa’s elves and not China. The man who owned the store was so cool too.  He went around and showed us all of the special things. He was so happy to play with us and show us all the things he liked. He played this funky magical music too, and the toys well, you know how the play kitchen is plastic well, it was real here. They had miniature ones!!!! And did you know that one of the first toys was the spinning top!!!!!!!! He had so many colorful wooden tops that this husband and wife make in Austria. I really want to see that country now. We got Uncle Scott and Uncle Eric a box of different sized tops that go from easy to hard.  The owner showed us how to do the hardest one. Mommy couldn’t do it.  We got a magnetic game there too and a wooden yoyo. 


Well, after that we took a walk to a small grocery store, to get some food and we saw octopus in the meat section! We don’t have that in New Orleans! It was so cool .


And well, we walked home and I meditated before I had to get back to work and catch the pretty sunset. It was a good one too!

See you for my next blog. 3 days till Piper,Sage,and Ms.Toni!!!!

Bye!!

    I would love the store with all the stoneware. Appears to be olive jars on the upper shelves. When you described the store, I could almost smell all the wonderful things in the stone barrels. Tons of Fava beans (lucky beans)! Lucky and fun day.
    So happy piper and sage will be there to visit. Show them all the wonders of Naxos.
    Mommy and you will plan a great visit. ❤️G

      It does! I feel like I have been waiting forever, yoyo. And daddy got sad last night when he figured out that he will only have one night with you and Fab in Prague. He comes on the 20 and you leave on the 21. I want to go see snow. When we are there. Mommy said I have to let you pick. Snow ?! I don’t know what to do there. I think we will read about it all when we get there because we have to see itLy first and I don’t know what to do there too. Mo mmy gets everything together at night when I go to bed. She is looking at Thailand now. Elephants are there.!🐭

        We shall see some snow for sure!! We’re going skiing, right? I don’t know what goes on in Prague either, but everybody loves it there, so I’m guessing it’s pretty great! In Italy, I hear there is very good pizza 😀

        Have so much fun with the Thompsons! I sent Ms T with a little prezzie for you from Brazil – I think you will like it!

        Big Xs and Os!
