A Busy Day in Richmond

We awoke earlier than usual because today was German school day for the 5-year-old, and Axel had playground duty.  Bob and the boys went to the school first, and the girls and I followed a bit later.

The school is actually an International Baccalaureate school, but Mark is only here on Saturday morning for 2 hours. We watched the kids play and enjoyed the beautiful day. After class we walked to the Thames and watched a little bit of a regatta taking place that day,

We also ate lunch at a beer garden along the river.  Then we walked back, experiencing the meltdown of both children before we got back to their home.  Too much walking for sure, and they only wanted their mama!

Back home, calm returned, and Bob played soccer with Mark while we all sat around and continued to enjoy the lovely day,  I helped with bath time, and we stayed outside until about 11:30pm.
