Woke up to a hungry Andres again this morning – he had slept 11 hours straight, so we were very pleased with this.
After breakfast, we went and sat out on the front porch and relaxed there for a while, talking to some of the other families and taking some photos.
The girls at the reception desk sometimes put an old banana out on the window ledge and some of the local birds fly in and peck at it.
After lunch and our collective afternoon nap, we went for a walk down the road to a local shopping mall – just a small one several blocks away. We stopped for some icecream – it was nice to get away from the hotel for a bit and stretch our legs.
Our feeding / bathing / sleeping routine seems to be working quite well – not much grizzling today and he finished off four full bottles for the first time.
Off to bed just after 6pm again after his bath and a feed. It means we can’t make much noise in the evening, but we have headphones and a y-adaptor so we can watch DVDs on the laptop together without distrubing Andres.
The birds are possibly Blue-grey Tanagers. See

I’m guessing that the one on the right is a male, the other a female.
Great photos yet again. Keep them coming.
Had a frustrating time trying to ID the birds with no luck – not many photos of Colombian birds on the net and I haven’t got a field guide.
Is is worth asking a local? Might be the simplest.
Well that is one very contented looking child:). He is obviously feeling very secure with you both. You would think Andres and Leanne have been together months not just days!
Andres looks like he has settled in well with you both, he looks quite relaxed and doesn’t mind being the centre of attention!
