A hot day!

Hello Friends,

Yesterday grandma was off. Went to have a manucure and pedicure and relax for  a few hours.
Today, I went back to the Mall, because I had a request from Maxime and I had a look around the Fashion avenue storey to get a shirt for dad’s coming Birthday. Yesterday I found mom Birthday presents.
I had a brunch at “le pain quotidien » organic eggs salad & avocado. Orange juice ( so good) plain Greek yogurt and a latte!


This morning when i opened the curtains there was the man cleaning the windows. ( thanks to these people Dubai is very clean they are important people !)

Here is the little mall downstairs with a small supermarket, hairdresser, beauty salon and doctor.

 I took a picture of where we buy our food quickly because I don’t want to take pictures of people.

Today it is 30 degrees C in the shade! So I have been 
 Walking along the walls to have some shade 😂 
Now I am back at one PM waiting for Maxime’s arrival from school and later William.
Have a nice day!
( here we are 3 hours late than France)

Souk Al Bahar and a morning shopping.🛍️

 Hello friends!

What will be Grandma doing today?

Well, a typical day here… wake up at 5 or 6 prepare porridge, wake up the children, have coffee and breakfast very quickly. Prepare the children for school and misery.

Mum takes Maxime to school by car or bike ( along the canal) they take William to nursery. Mum is rushing to the gym and daddy as well, while grandma is helping with the kitchen tidy, get the laundry done then prepare herself to go out to get fruit and vegetables from Waitrose ( and she may have a little treat 😜 on her way! 🤫)

The weather forecast here today: 25 C Sun and blue sky. But… before 10 grandma’s favourite weather around 18C!

Much nicer for walking!

( sorry I have problems with blogger and I have to put back some of my comments)

I had a little treat at “Morelli ice cream” but a small one this time.
Strawberry yogurt and dulce de letche
I had my lunch at “Le pain quotidien “
