DAY 198 RETURN OF THE BELLY ACHE

A Super-Girl Owned

A Playground Built For Giants

But Could Not Walk Home

We ate a small breakfast and Dwana packed a lunch and off we went upon the streets of Madrid. We just assume that the weather will be walking . Rarely do I dress depending on the climate. So far in Madrid we have had simply beautiful weather. So out the door and a quick stop into the Conde Duque to loo a t books. It is so great that this library is so close. We continued across Calle Princesa and towards the Gardens of the Palace, but we could not find the gate to enter, so we kept walking until another park appeared. This park was across the river and mostly concrete. A few bikers but not many people. No other children at the playground. The playground was great – tightrope walking spiderweb nets. you could go from one end of the playground to the other without touching the ground. Viena was loving it. But, then her tummy-ache appeared again and left her unable to walk. We tried some chocolate and churros, but that did not work. We found the one bridge that crosses over the Metro Tracks and into PArque Oeste. We finally made it home and Viena crashed out – plum worn out, I guess. Ezra and I went to the playground. I watched some boys play marbles and Ezra was thrilled that a boy shared his motorcycle with him. Ezra has a play monster named Kayu. I am not sure where he finds these names – I wanted to name him Freddie.
