oK, nOw ThE nEwS...


eh, eh...one problem solved... I have internet now in the land, with mobile network...how funny is that !!! :-) ... as for the power adaptor I found one that can be charged on the battery we have connected with a car lighter, but I still don't know if it will work...
O.k, but news...here they come ... There are new people on the land... another season starting :-)
Willi came back with Angela, and Danica came from Jesus Freax-Duisburg... And Miri came back when I went to Porto...It's so nice to have her around again... we really became sisters :-) I love her !!!

Nuno and Paula from Lisbon also came to visit for few days...it was really nice to have them with us... you can check some nice pictures from Nuno here...


WE'RE ALMOST FINISHING THE WATER SYSTEM.. Yiiippyyyy !!!! So much easier now !!! Thanks to Willi...He's amazing !!!

It will come all the way down to the house, the garden and the shower !!!! Waw, that's progress !!! Tsss :-)


And look at our vegetables...we already ate our own zukini (whatever you spell it), brocolli and onions ...and they are so tasty !!!



O.K, now I go to work and finishing digging the canal for the water pipe !!!
C u !!!

tEchNoLoGiEs...


I like how new technologies make things easier... but most of the times they get on my nerves... and I think there are not much things that can get my nerves... but not knowing what to do with this things really annoys me... Grrrr...
My sister gave me her ipod which I really like coz I love to listen music and now I can store a lot in that little thing... so cool !!!
I was trying to restore it coz there was always this message showing up saying something was wrong when I updated it... but now it's asking me to connect to the power adaptor, which I don't have ...Grrr... so, I'm kinda trapped !!! probably it's an easy thing to solve, but for me who know little about this things it's totally frustrating :-/
Then I also got today a wireless stuff for the computer to have internet on the land... but I don't know yet how to install it...after few hours already making dowloads, trying to connect one way or the other, etc... Grrrr...
And I wanted just to update my blog with news and answer a bunch of e.mails... but I got stuck with all this now...
Oh well... I better solve it before it gets late to go to the store...
Pfffff... I'm annoyed !!!
I hope it works to have internet on the land...even though I might have to go somewhere in the village to charge the computer as we don't have electricity... It's kinda funny, ne ?!!!
So, news from the land will come in a while !!! Maybe today, maybe in few days :-) !!!

Yep, fun was definitely not over... I'm just gonna put some more pictures with sub-tittles...They're a bunch, but they are worth it !!!
Enjoy !!!
This is Dane, of course... and yes, that's a snake!!! alive !!!









Jesse making a banch for our table outside... O.K, it's not as Byron (his father) would agree...but hey, it's perfect !!!


They were really determined to dig the whole canal to fill the pool... and they did it...even under rain !!! It added some more fun for them I guess... I confess that I was at the house during the heavy rain... but it was warm anyway...it was a bit like Africa !!! Jesse was saying that all the time :-) !!!






The snake made some company while they were working, and then they let it go !!! Good boys :-)
Here they were facing a lizzard with the snake...and you know what?! The lizzard bit the snake...Tsss !!!




Jesse was knitting one of his dreads on one of mine...then we did the same to him...
Yes, WE ARE BROTHER and SISTER !!! And we love each other so much :-)



The Uhlers missing the waves to surf..so they were trying on bins :-)

Then we had a nice time worshiping God and praying while painting the bins for water...we had fun as well :-)... Who thinks praying is boring ?!!!









And we also had a nice time praying till late in the night around the fire... :-)

It was so much easier to water the garden with all of them :-) They did a lot while they were here...And they specially brought a lot of joy ...Thanks guys !!!

Next day I went to take them to the train station...we decided to explore a bit and go to the river Tagus, in Vila Velha de Rodao, near Castelo Branco...sooo cool !!!

making little sailing ships...


One more hug and picture :-) before Jesse goes to meet his family in Tanzania...Oh I wish to go soon !!!

Waiting for the train...

Mishu went as well, coz I was going for the weekend to a "freak" wedding party and wouldn't leave her alone... she behaved, dispite the car trip that she doesn't seam to enjoy so much... I wonder what she thinks :-)



O.K, gotta go now to catch my train...I will go to Porto on wednesday to see my new nephews :-) Yipppyyy !!! Yes, Nelson and Joshua were born on the 7th of June... good and healthy :-) natural birth...I'm really proud of my sister :-) And really thankful to God !!!
