Summer Leave

We enjoyed a nice relaxing two weeks of leave. We didn't do any big trips we just decided to stay around town and just take it easy. The first week I took Maliah to see Sesame Street live. They had a show on post. She really enjoyed it. My baby loves Elmo lol. On another day we drove to Aviano Air Force Base. I had never been there this whole time we have lived here lol. It was a long drive but it was nice because we decided to take back roads so we got to see a little scenery. We just went to the BX there. That was a treat because it is way bigger than our PX.

We took the girls to a local zoo. We actually just found out about it. It was pretty nice. Lots of shade too. They didn't have any big animals like lions or giraffes, they had lots of little monkeys and a baby hippo. Lots of birds and camels and foxes and zebras. The girls enjoyed themselves.

This last Sunday we went to the open air market in Camisano. It's always fun to go there. It's very busy but there are lots of stands and lots to see. After that we decided to go spur of the moment to Venice. Drove there, took back roads once again. It's a lot nicer that way because we don't have to speed our way like you do when you are on the Autostrada. We got to see a lot more of the country and lots of little towns. It's funny because you know you have gone to Venice a lot when you don't even bring a camera. I don't even remember how many times I have gone. But we do know the streets like the back of our hand. Maliah is such a trooper. I did not see another three year old walking the streets of Venice. They were all in strollers. She walked the whole time and did not complain.

Kamora also had a check up. It was her 15 month checkup but we couldn't get her in for an appointment until she was already 16 months. She weighs 22lbs 2ozs (30th percentile) and is 32 inches tall (60th percentile). My growing girl. I dont think she is as tall as Maliah was at her age, but she is still pretty big :)

Over all we enjoyed our leave. This will probably be the last time we take leave until we make our way out of the country. We cannot wait for that!

Walking around the zoo

Here Kitty Kitty, Daddy using Kamora as bait lol

Kamora being the bad kid, the sign said don't touch, she wasn't going to listen

The girls excited about the little monkeys interacting with them
