To avoid the heat, most of our Galapagos hikes wer To avoid the heat, most of our Galapagos hikes were pre-breakfast. Bartolome started with an early morning hike giving us views in every direction from the top of a volcanic island with tiny lava lizards living their best lives. It was an easy walk up 350+ steps with platforms along the way to take a break from the uphill climb to soak it all in.

The boys spent the week with @rmfcampsusa and @aki The boys spent the week with @rmfcampsusa and @akinjisoccer in Madrid, where they got to train at Real Madrid City, working in their skills, making friends, and loving every minute. 3K dad and I go to explore Madrid alone (the Big One stayed home) and check in on the boys when we'd watch their games. (Also important to note: they roomed together and both lived to tell the tale.)

Cadillac Ranch. We could've driven by it and never Cadillac Ranch. We could've driven by it and never known it existed, but luckily we did know it existed. Just outside of Amarillo, TX we searched for any small indication of that existence on Route 66. Finally we found it, parked, and walked the flattest field in an arctic blast to see it. Was it worth it? Maybe. Maybe not. We all remember it though, so that's gotta mean something.
