Saturday

 Saturday February 21. Today grandma still wanted to go shopping at the feira. The compound we live in has some neat walkways in the courtyard that have rock walls that remind me of the rocks in the Selway only with palm trees.

We are getting better at this riding the bus and shopping at the feira.  Here are cashews.

The fruit is used in many ways and the stems are the nuts. No wonder they are pricey. We bought a lot today, grandma likes variety and I am just the maid/cook here. When we got home it all weighed in at 10 kilos or 22 pounds.

Thanks for all the comments everyone. It was getting down to just Drew reading. Grandma rested up even took a nap and then time to go shopping again. I bought another prescription of anti inflammatory medicine for her then we sat sown and had an ice cream cone at a McDonals kiosk. Not bad for 50 cents each. We bought burger for the week then walked real slow home due to the knee pain. In our apartment there is a ground floor then an intermittent floor with parking then 12 more floors numbered 1 through 12. I wanted a few more steps so I went down to the I or intermittent floor and circled the parking area. This is the only floor that inter connects all the buildings on this side of the complex. It is repeated across the courtyard. Each lap gives me 250 steps and is out of the blazing sun or pouring rain. I got my steps in and we watched the podcast on Sunday’s lesson, ate and just stayed in nice to get out for a little. Looking forward to Sunday. Love to all.
