Good game!

Here are twins at the end of the first game. Pinga was not only looking at twins team but noticing the judge of the game was very young just like the twins. He was very good and telling them many things like "the ball is still arrive, continue." Young but skilled as a judge already.

Coco-chan at a clinic

Coco-chan has been having stomach problems for a week and it got worse. On Sunday he had a high fever during the night he went to see the doctor on Monday. It wasn't helpful as the doctor said it was a stomach sickness and would take time to recover. Well, there was nothing new. Let's hope he recovers soon and no one gets what he has. He got this Stegosaurus key chain and was happy.

Pinga said in Italian that she has a friend in Forlí and he said he is from Torino. He also said her Italian is good. Pinga was happy and twins were happy too as the gelato was delicious.

ALE-HOP three days in a row

Twins love this shop and went there three days in a row. Well, every time is a different store so they've been to three shops. And everytime, they find something to buy. Not good for the wallet but it is fun to check their items out.
