Doctor Visit

 The twins had their 4th year check up with the doctor.  There was a lot more fun and interesting tests that were done, such as an eye test and hearing test.
They also received two vaccines.  Ada & Navi did not like their shots.

Making Dinner

PapaJason had a couple of helpers for preparing dinner. On the menu? Fish.
 But first one had to gut the fish.  Navi did not like his hands to get too dirty so Papa cleaned this one.
 Ada was more than happy to clean out her fish.
 Next was scaling the fish. Navi helped, but again, as long as he did not get his hands too dirty.
 Ada needed no help, she scaled the fish like a pro.  There was a little bit of a mess, but that is expected of all chefs, especially young ones.
 The final touches on the fish.
 Into the oven...
And dinner is served.

Lopez Ski Weekend

 After being home for only two days the twins headed up to totally opposite temperatures from where they've been, Squaw Valley.  There they joined Benji, Ximena and Elio in a weekend of fun.
There was a snow castle everyone got to enjoy. It was a great cold weekend.

Even More Mexican Pictures

 The twins visited the Potosi Refuge Centre.  They met some interesting animals like a mexican porcupine, many parrots, a coati, a baby alligator...
A boa-constrictor. 
 Iguanas and turtles.
 A very domesticated an lazy iguana.
And some really weird animals even DaddyQuique could not translate into what they were into English.

A Few More Pictures From Mexico

 At Playa Las Gatas the twins tried out a bit of snorkeling. They were able to see some fish close to shore.
 Navi ventured out into the water with PapaJason and with his goggles was able to dip his head in and see even more sea creatures.
 Including spotted rays.
 Porcupine Puffers.
 Colorful fish.
And fish that did not seem to fear people.

More Pictures From Mexico

 A few pictures from the pool.
 Ada diving with a smile, no wonder she is always swallowing water.
 More smiles and a wave.
 Is that a smile?
Both enjoyed playing freely in the pool, which was well deserved for all their hard work at swim class.

The Final Day

One last night out for dinner on the town.
The coconut that was promised at the beginning of the trip.
And finally one last dip in the warm water.

Making Friends

Last night Ada finally warmed up to the other friendly guest at the hotel. She played pretend waiter and served ashtray sand and flower cakes to guest. Everyone was so happy to finally hear Ada talk.
This morning Navi played the piano while Ada danced. The twins have been doing quite a bit of bonding on this vacation.

Day Excursion

The twins headed out of town today to tour a wild life refuge. Afterwards it off to Playa Blanca for lunch. The waves were a little too big for the twins, but the beach front restaurant had delicious food (and cheap), hammocks and two pools. Ada & Navi had a great afternoon.

Lots To Do & See

Walking through town last night the twins stumbled into a church. The crucified Jesus scared Navi a little.
The main center of Zihutanejo is quaint with pedestrian friendly streets.
But what the kids love most, besides the food, is playing in the water and sand.

Life's A Beach

Today was a day to relax at the beach. The daddies did most of the relaxing. Ada & Navi were all over the beach and in the water. The food was good too, the twins have been enjoying fish tacos.

Buenos Dias

The twins were ready early this morning to take a boat ride across Zuhuatanejo Bay to Playa Las Gatas. They are excited about having a babysitter while the daddies go scuba diving. Ada asked if the babysitter's name will be Linda.
