On Sunday, we did some spring cleaning out in the back yard. We organized our stuff and made room for the bikes. We have had such nice weather. Katelyn could not wait to get on her bike. It's been a while since she has ridden it and it needed some adjustments. We headed down to the lake with everyone else.
I don't know if you have noticed but everyone pretty much wears black. Katelyn and I are easy to spot in our bright colored jackets. Of course, Lucas is in shorts. Kate was happy to be able to carry the bread for the swans in her basket.
It was a little bit hazy that day but you could see the Alps. It is hard to see them in this picture.
The other thing I wanted to mention is that helmets are not big here for kids on bikes or scooters. We see the real little ones with helmets but by the age of 8 they seem to not exist. It makes it very hard for our kids to wear one. Of course, you can see who fights us the most and gets away with it every once in a while.
There are lots of swans right now. At least 50. They are so much fun to watch.
This big area was a perfect place for the kids to ride around. Kate was trying to race her brothers. They did a good job dodging the people on the sidewalks.
Kate was a proud biker. She slept really well that night. Of course the weather has changed this week. We had rain, sleet, snow and sunshine all on Tuesday. Today seems to be just an overcast, cold (37 F) day. They are predicting rain for the rest of the week.
