Hugo has moved into our largest guest room and he settled in nicely. After spending more than 3 weeks traveling in Canada and the U.S. with his parents and 3 sisters, it must seem very quiet to him in our house with just Cordell and me.

This was a very calm morning for all of us as there were no early morning plans. After eating breakfast, Cordell gave Hugo some golf lessons in our back yard.

Later, the two of them went to a Mellomar Golf Park. It was Cordell's intention to spend time hitting balls off the practice tee. However, there were not a lot of people playing golf on this day and so a decision was made that they would also play the 9 holes on the short par 3 course.

Later, we took Hugo with us to attend a special geocaching event. Other geocachers met at a restaurant, IHOP, where we all ate dinner. Since this restaurant serves breakfast all day, some of us ordered breakfast items for our evening meal. Cordell and Hugo ate a regular dinner while I enjoyed waffles with berries and cream.

 

 It was interesting to meet other people who enjoy geocaching and we talked about our experiences. I think it must have been difficult for Hugo to hear several people speaking English at the same time, but he was able to understand some of it and we also explained more of it to him. All the people were very friendly to Hugo and they were pleased to meet someone from France.

And so, after returning home, we watched the Baltimore Orioles game on television and we are happy that they won this game.
