The school holidays are now in full swing and for the first time since arriving here we visited a McDonalds of course it had a large flat screen TV plus interactive computer games for the children, this is not the norm in British McDonald restaurants!
We had a quiet start to the week by joining the local library and on my tour around the librarian informed me the library will go through a refurb later this year to include a drive-through drop off point for returning books also not the norm for British libraries!
A fun day out last week was to the Thinkery, after slowly evolving since 1983 the Thinkery is now an established children's museum focusing on “STEAM” learning – science, technology, engineering, art, and math – as well as healthy living. The girls were completely enthralled, captivated and entertained for hours, we'll be going back there soon.
We have also had Fathers Day and the World Cup begin cue one very happy excitable British hubby, he watched the first England game in downtown Austin at an Irish pub called Fado....apparently the atmosphere wouldn't be the same watching the game at home.
