Yep - I can see you reacting that way with the kids on the street, Kabu! And I'm sure the kids loved it! That was so cool - the condo & dinner with your son.

A great way to catch up with your travels seeing as how you've been asleep since you got home.
Of course you would do and say exactly that with ruffians on the street. I'm happy you're safely home love.

Dinner with sons, I like that. I rarely get to eat with one son in Ohio.
And in Brasil, when I lived there, in the '60s, all the baba's, the nannies, taught their little boys to pee on walls and trees and poles !!! So, not much different. AND, if you can make naughty boys laugh, that usually humanizes them. But, you already knew that, heheheheh.

I love the sentiment in all of this but I am so sorry
I am still drooling over the kitchen! OH I miss having a big spacious kitchen.
Seriously, it sounds like a wonderful welcome.

There's business, and there's pleasure...
Sounds like your son managed to balance the two very well. I guess when ya gotta go, ya gotta go, and when you're a kid good judgment isn't always the reigning faculty. Waiting for the next scoop.

Come now girls enough of this peeing saga I want to hear how how Kabu felt in her new surroundings, was it hot did you feel strange in a foreign country, did you feel proud sitting with your son. I think we are going to wring you dry dearie, and no airbrushing.

I heard the BL tried to pee against a wall and you ended up bailing
her out of jail. Glad no photos were taken of that!
