Trip to Paraguay

On the flight from San Diego to Atlanta, Ismael was invited to the cockpit by the pilot which he loved of course. The pilot even acknowledged him over the loudspeaker when he introduced himself during the flight.

Of course it didn't take long for his to find the lawn mower and insist on getting on...with the dog of course, his new best friend.

Lining up the piggy banks....

He gave a tour of the grounds on day, wanting a picture in front of everything. Here he is in front of the pool with the house in the background.

Here is Papá with Pelusa the dog, Ismael and Hugo the turtle. Ismael wanted to do everything with the dog, eat, sleep, watch tv, read books... From the moment he woke up to the moment he slept he wanted to know where Pelusa was.

Here we are at the playground at the park. It's not exactly up to US standards. It was made out of wood with a few slats missing and a few nails protruding. He ripped 2 pairs of shorts on the nails while going down the slide, but the maid fixed them right up!

This is Francisca the wonderful maid. Ismael always wanted to know what she was doing.

He also liked playing soccer with dog and sometimes even the turtle.






Los novios...Fernando (aka Funny boy per Ismael) and Pilar after the wedding in front of the church.

Mamá and Papá at the reception.

Me and Ismael who was a bit tired by now. The wedding started at 8pm and by this point it was late and he had run around with the other kids at the wedding.

Here he is again posing with everything he saw...
