Getting of the plane: "Papa, aqui no hace frio!" (It's not cold here.)
Asking for the evening Novenas..each evening the nine days before Christmas, a short service and singing in front of the nativity scene. "We have to cantar a (sing to) baby Jesus."
Conversation with one of the staff at the hotel:
D: "Yo soy de Cartegena" (I'm from Cartegena)
S: "Tu no eres de Cartegena"
D: "Yo soy de Cartegena"
S: "Tu no eres de Cartegena"
D: .. pregnant pause... "Yo soy de Canada. Alla hace mucho mucho frio" (It's cold there.)
Just before nap: "Juan David can have Oso y Mari can have Nana" (sharing comfort items spells total cousin love)
In A&W - after having tried to race into the parking garage after me, being held back by grandma, crying for Papa, hungry, in the bathroom, congratulated for NOT peeing in his pull-up despite 4 clogged bathrooms in the airplane and no bathroom in site in the baggage pick-up.... "I was sad with Grandma but now I am happy with chi-chi!"
He's a champion traveler.
