saturday was a day of family activities. it began at 9:30 with us all in the kitchen drinking coffee and preparing for our bike ride. joaquin, sergio, and i set off for a bike ride to parque grande, the largest park in the city of zaragoza. we spent two hours or so riding through the park, visiting the botanical gardens, and waiting while joaquin tried to figure out how to use the camera on his phone. we stopped in the shade to have a bocadillo before riding home, about a three hour excursion in total. at 6:30 we left for gran casa mall to go bowling at planet bowling. cristina and i started off very well with two gutter balls, meanwhile joaquin hit a strike. it was a game filled with lots of laughs as sergio continually tried to sabotage his papa. bowling was followed by a couple of rounds of foosball and then home for a late, delicious cena.
