happy summer

It has been a great summer although I don't know any
others for comparison. I enjoyed my travels, especially
meeting my family and friends from Italy, Colombia and the east
coast of the USA. I hope you all come visit me soon in California!

back to Pasadena

Back in Pasadena, we are visiting with Phil, Anastasia, and Anika.
They have a great old house with lots of places to play.And I like them a lot. Here is Anastasia giving me a hug.

Sometimes my Dad has to care for both me and my friend Anika.

After all of my travels, it is nice to just relax around the yard,

even if I do have to babysit for Anika sometimes.

Boston & Martha's Vineyard

Before going to Maine, we stopped in Boston to meet more of my east coast family. Here I am with my cousin Evan.I also visited Martha's Vineyard, where I went for walks,

spent time with my cousins Jason and Zach,

read a book with my great aunt Julie,

enjoyed the local wildlife,

and learned how to swim!

Wonderful Maine

We went to Maine to visit Robert Dudley and his family.
While there, we bought lobsters directly from the lobstermen,

visited Acadia National Park,

and spent lots of time just hanging out by the lake.

A visit from the Arizona Amayas

We spent a couple of wonderful days with my cousin Isabel and her parents Sue and Jose here in Woods Hole. We went to the beach and even played in the sea.

also in Wood Hole,

I met Andrew Dunlop. He has been friends with my dad for many years
and he makes both of us laugh at his jokes.

In Woods Hole,

I take baths as I always do,
but here, I can crawl out of them.
