Wifey and The Little Devil have arrived in Time for the Running of the Bulls

Last Saturday my wife and little girl arrived in time for the Fiesta of San Fermin, now this Saint must have been a miserable shit for wanting bulls tortured and killed in his name. Anyhow on arriving Jenny knew that life would be a little bit boring during the day while i am at work, so her daily routine is going to the Gymn and then taking a huge breakfast and trying to hold on until i get back at night, but my routine is at odds with this as i take a huge breakfast and huge lunch and then I am not really hungry at night other than taking a cocktail from the hotel bar at 9pm. we we are struggling with the eating arrangements already. We went out on the following sunday to the most amazing picturesque tourist route in Navarra, up along the Pyrenees over into France and looking at all the vultures and hawks and countless birds that were patrolling the skies. As we rounded a hillside we encoutered an eagle that was landing on a fencepost. it was so impressive to see it flapping its huge wings as we went passed, That was the best part of the day, the weather was so much colder than when i went up with Oscar, it went down to 10.5 C whereas it was 22.5 the week before. Jenny has been to downtown Pamplona a couple of times on the bus and wlaked around some Japanese gardens and been relaxing , as she doesn't need to do any washing or shopping or cooking, so life is easy for them but trying to get the eating arrangements sorted is difficult, I don't want to eat at night and she does, the little girl eats hardly anything anyway apart form French fries, which we are trying to wean her off. she doesnt eat anything that has colour, fruit or vegetables, totally out of the question, anyway, this coming weekend we are looking at going to the beach near the French border.
