The trip down yesterday was long, and the seats had no lumbar support, making them quite uncomfortable for me. But fortunately the trip was boring. Mark got sick at the last minute and didn’t make it. Danita and I started our day with an authentic Colombian breakfast from our Airbnb hosts. It was attractive and quite tasty. Ryn stayed at Jul’s guest room. Her breakfast included quail’s eggs. The consensus of the Reed household was that quail eggs taste just like chicken eggs.
But they sure look nice.
Our next activity was a trip to REI for new bikes. Bryan has outgrown his 20″ bike and was ready for a larger 24″ bike. Elizabeth is big enough for a 24″ bike, but she isn’t ready to balance the bike. She got a very last pink 24″ bike, but for now she is using Bryon’s old 20″. The weather was perfect for a little riding. There was plenty of riding going on. What wasn’t perfect was what I did to Pat’s car. I use Pat’s SUV to bring the bikes home. When I closed the rear hatch, one of the struts broke. The bikes were in the car and the hatch was closed, but it wouldn’t open. Fortunately, Pat and I were able to get the strut out and open the hatch when I got home.
The new member of the Reed household is Eddie. He is quite friendly. When we walked into the house, the dog didn’t bark even once. I’ll let the pictures tell the rest of this story.
