Thanks to all!

Every little thing...

Thanks! All small gifts from Friends, their time, meetings and coffee, supporting words and tiny gifts helped Jirafita to feel appreciated. Now she is looking for MORE!

Crying Jirafita

Jirafita is crying and I cannot help her. She is disappointed that she is not going to Africa. Poor her. She was expecting this with such a joy.

Traditional Polish meeting with friends

In some cultures, spending time with friends means going to the restaurant, share a meal or going to the cinema. 

Here in Poland we love playing board games. Fact is that we do not have TV otherwise instead of intellectual entertainment we could spend time brain-washing.

Jirafita is thinking that playing board games is more common in Europa than other continents. What do you think?

Assembly

All around the world Jirafita keep visiting assemblies  in different languages. This one was in Polish. Can you guess its title? 

Holding hands up...

Jirafita practicing holding hands above her head... :) they are just too short or her neck is too long :)

flamenco classes

I should have done this in Madrid, but after jirafita got inspired we took some classes in Poland.

Other things...

Within a while everyone will start thinking that the only activity is eating... It is not true :( I must admit that THIS is one of the most important thing for Jirafita. But if we want be fair it is time to mention that during her first week in Poland she did renovation of her room painting all the bookshelves and rearranging the room, cleaning, segregating things and packing for her great trip to homeland: Africa and she did one more thing... I will mention it later!

Exploring

No wonder Jirafita's belly is bigger and bigger, exploring Polish restaurants and food shops and sweet shops  takes most of her time. Poor her!

Raspberry mousse

This is something...

Kluski

Kluski are noodles. Variety of things Polish people are capable of making from their cheese and potatoes are incredible. Those actually are called Kluski maniane, and are nice and soft and tasty with little sugar and butter

Taking a bath

Traveling makes everyone little dirty, so taking long bath with bubbles was very relaxing. (In Mexico bath tubes are not very popular).

Giraffe loves climbing the tree

I think this is quite unusual. I saw giraffes stretching a lot or even balancing on their two legs trying to reach nice green leaves in Africa. But this one... For her just sitting among the branches and relaxing seems to be fun. And only promise of nice chocolate or churro is able to make her go down.

Candies!

These were good! Yummy!

And this is me and Jirafita

That none could accuse her that she is doing everything on her own.
She is sharing with me her experiences.
Although I think it is little unfair that she get the badge from Prada
Museum and me not!

Amazing Food in Madrid

Jirafita has discovered today Market with the most amazing food ever.
She wanted to try everything and couldn't decide what kind of tapas
she should eat first. That was crazy. Her stomach is just too small :(
But she liked Madroño liqueur very much, especially because after
drinking she could eat the cup.

Jamon bocadillos

In other words Ham sandwich.
Isn't it amazing that at the corner of the street there is a shop
selling sausages and ham in a bag as a street snack?
Jirafita couldn't resist this fresh sandwiches with Spanish Jamon.

Jet of Milk from María figure breast

We are in Prado Museum, Madrid watching different paintings. This one
we found extremely funny. Actually it ridicules all idol's worshipers.
So be careful, if you are praying before any idol, and accidentally
you are about to be saint... You may get jet of milk from the breast
or even worse.

What to do in Madrid in the evening?

Jirafita knows!
She watched flamenco and drank tiny little beer with some tapas.

Primera propia comida en Madrid

With Jirafita we went to the local pub to enjoy Menu de Reyes, on the photo leek and mushroom soup, nice hot and warming... Perfect for outside weather, that is little rainy today.
