Tobilandia and Pizza

Today was the day that we celebrated Kristen's birthday with her friends. It was too hard to try to do it during the week with her tutoring and after school lessons, so we decided on today.

Since we moved here all I have heard about is her wanting to go to Tobilandia. It is a water park very close to our house. So her wish was to go there. Her school ends at 1:30 and the park closes at 6pm so we had tons of time.

Friday is not a busy day there so with only 2-3 other families in the whole park, the kids had the place to themsleves. The water slides twisted and turned around each other and they changed which slides were open at a time. I believe that was to make sure that there were no accidents in the catch pool.

The had inner tubes to run down the slides with and the stairs that those children climbed over and over to get to the top and slide down, was better then any exercise program. Maybe that is what we adults should do to stay in shape and lose weight, we should just play like a child.

Dinner after was at Toscana's the best pizza in Mexico because the owner is from Tuscany. Can you imagine leaving one paradise to come to another? We are all so glad that he did because his crust is so amazing.

I have stopped ordering the pizza when I go there because if you order a salad or pasta you get the pizza crust, baked with olive oil and salt and pepper and it is the best thing I have ever tasted. It is light and flaky and so good.

Tonight I had a salad with pears, walnuts, goat cheese and honey. A salad that tasted like desert. My main course was decadent pasta with garlic, olive oil and parmesan cheese.

Have you noticed that I talk about food a lot?
