Not a ton to write about today, but here goes …

Breakfast. As always, after Greg took a ride and after the kids get up.

Then we decided to take a drive to Krka National Park.

The drive was fun: Greg’s car was programmed to skip toll roads, and so we ended up taking longer but seeing more.

Greg knew, in fact, that we’d be stopping on the way back to get a few things that he saw on our way to the park.

The park itself was crazy! SO crowded. It felt a bit like Disneyland, with the line of people we followed along a boarded walkway. The waterfalls were pretty.

Then it was time to head home. Greg stopped at one place for garlic because he also saw the “Vino” sign. When he asked the man about that he was taken to the house and downstairs where the wine was and we all took a little taste (one small glass that we shared). Then Greg said he’d buy two liters. The man took the wine from whatever he had it stored in (I couldn’t see that far into the room) and put it in a plastic Fanta bottle! Greg bought a few other things as well, and then it was back to our house.

I was making dinner, and of course Dan helped quite a lot. I was making chicken cacciatore, but not in my usual way, where I bake the chicken with the sauce. I wanted to be sure the kids had their choice of how they would eat it. So I made the sauce (onions, garlic, celery, carrots, mushrooms, zucchini, eggplant, and lot so tomatoes along with herbs, salt and pepper), and Avni grilled the chicken. Meanwhile Greg made a “Greek-ish” salad. Dan boiled the pasta. All in all I thought it was a pretty good dinner.

I love that Levin doesn’t yet think cleaning up is a woman’s job, so he helps a lot. May he continue to be that way when he grows up!

After dinner some of us sat around and yakked for a while.

Now, back in our room, I can barely keep my eyes open, so off to bed I go!

One. More. Day.

That makes me sad, but of course all good things much come to an end.
