A Day Of Three Walks

 Yesterday was cooler and sunny with a high of 24C. This morning it is sunny and 19C. Today is supposed to be sunny with some wind and 21C. 

Yesterday was a day of three walks. Our first walk was to the grocery store. On the way we saw this elf/Santa on a balcony. The night before we thought it was a kid falling off the balcony.

When we got to the grocery store, I noticed they had finished decorating the Christmas tree and they had Santa coming down a rope to the top of the tree. 

We got our groceries and came home. I was able to find one more treat for the boys across the street from me. 

Our second walk was down to the lavadero to pick up grandson's clothes. On the way I saw this palm tree that wasn't as tall as some others but it was big around. 

We picked up the laundry and son packed it back for us. Though the lavadero looked like it was unorganized and full, it was empty compared to the day we took the laundry in. They wash, dry, and fold your laundry and put them into sealed bags. 

Considering the clothes were grey coloured due to the horrible washing machine at grandson's apartment, they came back very clean and the whites were pretty white. 

The third walk was in the late afternoon. Son was at a meeting with an IT group so daughter-in-law and went for a walk. We had a small ice cream. She had pistachio and I had strawberry. 

As we walked back we saw this tree that had two different colours of blooms on it. 

We are heading out this morning to Punta del Este. It is a good 2 hour drive from the apartment and is a resort town. We will do some snooping, have lunch and then head home another route through some rural areas. Son got some information from one of the IT people as he lives in that area. 

I got a picture from my neighbour and it has snowed a lot. They were out shovelling my driveway and it looked like 8+" of snow has fallen. 

It looks like they could have a white Christmas; the first in many years. This has been the snowiest December that we know of. 

Until the next time.........................................................................
