Ordinary World

A while ago I posted an update about an ordinary day. Believe it or not, we actually have a quite a few of them! There is no way we could sustain travelling each day and visiting a new place each or every other day. Being a tourist is actually quite a tiring thing! We generally blog about the new places, and new things that we do as we believe these are the memories that we will want to look back on in years from now. But some days are memories because they are normal. 

Today has been another one of those "normal" days, a reminder that we are part of an ordinary world. Jasper and Maya have been to SOMAD (School Of Mum And Dad) and completed handwriting, numeracy work on 2D shapes, French at the bakers shop, then lunch, followed by a walk to the nearby Moulin, writing for literacy all about the walks we have been on today, and then PE/playtime for the rest of the day. We've cooked dinner and eaten it together, played an after dinner game of Carcassonne, written diaries and then showered the children ready for bed. 

In amongst all of this, the motorhome has had a good and thorough clean throughout, clothes have been washed and dried, folded and put away (still no ironing done!), the fridge has been cleaned and re-stocked, the grey and black waters have been emptied, fresh water added, and even the cushions have been aired in the sunshine!

All in all, as I said, a normal day, but I just wanted to blog the fact that we really do have them!
