Our big hike at the beach (and the river)

Hello friends,

How are you guys? Good? Okay.

I have good news. I found my camera. Actually, daddy found it for me. So I have some "foto yo" for you. You know what "foto yo" is in English? Pictures. Well, now you know.

Today I went on a GIANT hike. We were gone for three hours. We started from our house and then we walked to the beach and then we walked to the river. It was really long. We also had a picnic there. There were two rivers we had to walk through. One was very deep so daddy carried us through. Mommy walked through the river too. They got wet up to their bottoms. Well, mommy did. Daddy got wet up to his waist and mommy got wet up to her bottom.

These are some of the pictures from my walk. We took over 100 of them. (Some of them mommy took.) We just picked a couple to show you.

This is going to be a joke. Question:"Why did the chicken cross the road?"
You can try to tell me what you think the answer is in your comment. And on my next blog, I will see who is right and I will tell you about it in my next post.

Daddy under a palm tree.

Jean Richard, one of the boys we met, did this backbend.

Daddy and the boys and Josiah (and Nico) standing by a tree. There was another piece in the ocean too. The boys said it came down in a hurricane.

This is a shipwreck in the sea.

A pig in the river looking at me.

Garbage on the ground. There is a lot of garbage on the ground in Haiti.

Me next to pink flowers. Mommy took this one.

I had beet juice with dinner tonight. It was purple.

I have to go now. I will see you later.

Love,
Nia

  1. Wow! I am so glad your dad found your camera. Where was it?
    When I was a little girl the answer to that riddle was "to get to the other side" but I bet you can come up with a more clever answer than that!
    That pig was cute in a dirty piggy kind of way. oink!oink!

  2. Did the chicken cross the road so he wouldn't end up in somebody's cooking pot? I enjoyed reading about your day and seeing the pictures. I'll make sure Grandpa reads your blog also.
    We love you!

  3. I think the chicken crossed the road so you could take its picture.
    I liked your pictures.

  4. I'm not sure why the chicken crossed the road...

    But I have to tell you, in case you don't already know-- beet juice turns your...*ahem*... bright purple!

  5. My guess for your riddle is "so Nahomi didn't cook him". Am I right?
    I love your pictures! I'm glad you had a good time.
