Two little stories form Greece

We're visiting Super Papou in Greece - with Yaya and Dimetres, but without Mummy. You and your sister are having so much fun. Today we ate lunch with Hella in Loco Bus and went to the play area, which had a bouncy castle, a ball pit and a toddler climbing frame. Maybe I'll post some pictures later.

Seeing Super Papou and Minnie sitting next to each other, I imagine Super Papou being Minnie's age and sitting next to someone of Super Papou's age - who would have been born in 1833!

I wanted to tell you two funny stories from today.

You made up your first joke. You made a string of spaghetti out of Play-doh with Dimetres this morning. You put the spaghetti on your nose and said, "Look! Bolog-nose!"

Dimetres laughed so much that you kept on going - you put the spaghetti on your eye and said, "Bolo-eyes!" then "Bolo-ears!" and so on.

Later, in the play area, you were having fun in the toddler climbing maze, which was full of little padded rooms with net walls, and slides, and ball pits. At one point you shouted, "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!"

"Yes, Penny?" I said. I couldn't really see you in there, but I could hear you well enough.

"I'm a stuck princess!"

"Oh, really?" I said. "Will you be stuck a hundred years and grow old in there?"

"No!"

I laughed to myself, and went back to chatting with Yaya.

Then five minutes later you started crying. "What's wrong Penny?" I asked.

"I'm a stuck princess!"

"You're really stuck?"

"Yes!"

So I ventured into the child-sized climbing maze and found you. Sure enough, you were totally stuck! You had unzipped a netted wall, snuck behind the maze and zipped it up again behind you - but the zip was only on one side! You were huddled into a tiny space, smiling at being rescued. I know you like pretending to be a princess, but it was very funny to hear you refer to yourself as one in that situation!
