so this week we are in montanita, montanita is a small
village on the coast of ecuador this village is famous in the whole world
because it is a great surf spot, we understand why, the waves are great and
There are surfers everywhere, you get a bit of a hippie atmosphere it's like
your back in the 60's, we felt at home right away !
we really enjoyed watching the surfers and martin wanted tottery a surfboard himself
and he's doing pretty well ....
I tested surf with Martin
and it was super cool he was so cute when
I could not stand up on the board, he said "mom, mom I encourage you, I know that
you need it" and when I could stand up he told me
"Mom, you are doing great ! " he was so cute ...
it did not help you that much ...
I wasn't that bad right ?
she did okay ! she managed to stand up !
it was better than when I dive.. and. You will see this in a few seconds
I was filming jill she was surfing
and than you see martin who passed right next to her and overtook her
Let's go !
What is it my dear?
It's a starfish but it's not a starfish!
so the pictures speak for themselves it was so nice
we had a really good time so you went back at least 3x
and martin went every day
an hour in the morning
an hour in the afternoon, when he surfs we rent the board and he surfs alone so
now he gets up all by himself, he does really well.. it's so
adorable to see! So we integrated well in the street the kids made
new friends, they played with water bombs, hide and seek and ice wolf ...
the same games as back home !
in the evening when we cook dinner at the 4x4
all the kids come around us they play with martin and rose they
are impressed with our kitchen in the 4x4
mart made a friend called Jeremy, Jeremy is super nice and
he offered to teach him some surf lessons they went surfing together
it was too cute.. at this moment martin did not manage to
stand up yet and jeremy had a lot of patience with him
it was too cute .. I was impressed because he is only 9 years old
he told me that he had been surfing since he was 2 years old, he surfs very well he was going into huge waves!
he was very patient and very kind!
this morning we explored the rocks at low tide
in the morning I always go for a walk with iris and iago, and every day the tide shifts
for an hour so this morning when we for a walk with Martin
the tide was very low and we saw these little
pebbles and we discovered natural pools, full of fish
beautiful corals the water was very clear, sea urchins ...
small black sea stars, and fish and crabs
it was really great ! So we went back to get the girls
we told them to come
we had to go now because it was low tide, the water goes up quite quickly
and who played in the natural pools ? iris and iago!
it hurts when I walk ...
I'm afraid of losing my balance ...
Martin how did you do it?
it's a starfish!
this afternoon on the beach mart & rose
were making sand castles with their Argentinian friend and there they found
a little turtle so you should nevercatch them
we know it and they know it too, but this little turtle was injured and
they put it back in the water we're going to show this little turtle
she had a part of a fin cut, no idea how it could have happened ...
he was missing a piece of it's paw ... so we are wondering if there are
other turtles on the beach ...
we love this street because there are plenty of small restaurants and there are some
trucks passing selling them food
so we have been shopping at the truck
we do not have to move anymore it's always complicated to
"refuel" and here everything just comes to us! it's great !
it's really cheap, there are fruits & vegetables ... eggs too ...
I think we can find everything! it's funny because when you ask at what time they are passing by
they say they pass
almost every day, between 3 and 4, and then the next day they are there at 10 am
or they do not pass by at all! it's really cool to have those trucks passing!
that's all for this week, we'll see you soon !
every wednesdays & sundays for new videos ! see you !
