palm sunday

it's a very sunny sunday. lots of tourists flocked the center of milan. church was crowded and palms are all over. we had fun strolling, shopping & eating. the pictures said it all.

as usual, in front of the castello sforzesco. zendra kept pointing the fountain, so we sat around for a while. my son, jaki's not feeling that well (stomach ache). later on, he's been ok.

i always call my mom to go with us. served as "baby-sitter". =)

first stop: shop for jaki's new shoes. his leather shoes doesn't fit anymore, while his rubber shoes is yelling for a new one. first choice is black adidas: no more size for him. second choice: new balance, light brown: he didn't like it.

was zendra suggesting a shoes for his kuya or she's choosing for herself?

winner: white nike for jaki!

hub said, "ikaw? ano gusto mo?" (what do you want?) without a blink i got this purple sweat shirt. baka magbago isip mister ko eh. (before he changed his mind)

while roaming around the decathlon sport store, zendra's busy biking around. she doesn't want to get up. mom ended up buying one for her. thanks mom!

strolled around. and starved.

next stop: spizzico. what else? pizza fever!!!

zendra's fries!

hurray! it's the new eco-bus...cool! going home...

i don't know why, but my daughter won't let go of the paper glass and the straw. literally slept with it until we got home.
