Paute - Part 2

This post covers our last two days visiting Paute - Saturday and Sunday.  On Saturday I got the brilliant idea to take Scout with us.  I knew we were going to be gone for awhile and since I had fed her at 6:30 and we didn't leave until 10:30 I thought she would be fine.  Nope.  She threw up three times in our brand-new-to-us car.  Mark was not a happy camper. 

Scout is 8 years old.  Just this past summer she finally learned how fun it can be to be a dog in a car and hang your head out the window.  For all of those long 8 years she would shiver and shake and puke in the car.  Well, she still pukes in the car, but at least she doesn't shake anymore and now she seems to be having a little bit of fun. 


Just outside of Paute they have a 167 meter swinging bridge. It is pretty rickety and gets a bit scary around the middle.  Tali and I almost turned back, but we talked ourselves into going on and made it to the other side. 

Random photo of the kids in Paute's cute and quiet square.

The bridge.





On Sunday there is a pretty big market in Paute.  It is also a day for families to get together and have a picnic, etc...  Just spend time together.  They had a bouncy house in the park and the kids spent quite a bit of time on it.  They also had these great, little 4-wheelers that you could rent.  $1 for 5 minutes.  Finn and Tali loved them.  Tali kept begging to go back later, but it started to rain. 


It took her awhile to figure out how to push in the starter
button with her little hand, but eventually she got the
hang of it and loved it.

After riding the 4-wheelers we headed to the market in search of sweat pants.  Here are a couple shots of the market before it started to rain.

  1. I can just imagine Mark's comments re Scout. LOL. OH boy, I think you will have your hands full when Miss Tali starts driving. PS, love the pic of Finn & Tali on the park bench. As always, big brother has his arm around little sister, so very sweet!
