Budapest Sledding Day

Terence (nearly 8 years old) and Mia (6 years old) have no school on Wednesdays at the French Lycee in Budapest. Since our dear friends, the McGann clan, have returned to Hungary for a visit we decided to have them over for a sleep over on Tuesday night. The 4 of them (oldest son stayed behind in Florida with his grandma) came Tuesday for dinner and lots of fun and laughter. On Wednesday, their daughter Keira and Mia and Ali went to a birthday party while Kerry and I took the boys (Terence and his best buddy, Liam) across the street from our home to the big sledding hill. A few friends of Liam's joined us around mid-day for a fun afternoon in the sunshine. After a few hours of sledding, we took them all for pizza. Here are a couple videos including Terence's sledding runs.


1st one coming down on sled is Liam; 2nd one is Terence.



This is T coming down and crashing. They would take turns waiting on the side (you can see the 4 of them) while one would go up and other 4 would throw snowballs at them while they passed. It must be a guy thing.
