Ideas continued, and puppies and frogs

Ok, in case you hadn't noticed the new 'gadgets' installed, I just want to take a moment to point them out. I love that frog. Anyway, as it turned out the family were lovely. They seemed genuinely as interested as we were in being friends, and I'm hoping that's going to last long into the future. K, his friend and I took some canoes we'd borrowed from the neighbour out in to the water. That's because we're right next to the sea. As in walk out the door, and before you've gone two metres, you're feet are wet. Its hard for me to grasp it's the sea though, because the water here's really calm, and all I can see are islands,I can't see the sea, even from the roof. As it turned out, the friend and his family did send us a text to say they were late, it just came half way through lunch. To be honest, if anything it felt a little awkward since Mum and Dad were speaking at half speed, over enunciating and getting louder with each syllable.Clearly they'd forgotten that M, K's friend, had just spent a year in an English school, speaking English. When we took the canoes back in, we used this rusty ramp, and I cut my foot. It looks a lot worse than it actually is, because its bleeding so much. I think, I hope, I pray...Anyway... You know, I'm gonna go now. I'll update tomorrow hopefully, please feel free to comment, thank you Lotti!! I love you too hun, say merry Christmas and happy new year to the others for me. Bye!!
