Tapas and Helado

Couscous with dried fruit was so good!
Spring time is finally here! This past weekend the weather was 75 degrees and sunny! On Sunday we decided to drive to downtown Puerto for lunch and ice cream. There are so many restaurants downtown that we could probably go to a different one every weekend and still not eat at them all.

We parked in a lot along the river and walked into the downtown area. All of the restaurants were opened and busy. We decided to try El Sitio de Velez. We found a table under an umbrella outside. This turned out to be an excellent choice. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The girls ordered juice and ravioli's and Eric and I ordered a beer and shared some tapas…a salad, couscous dish and empanada type dish. The girls even made a Spanish friend while we were there. The three girls ended up playing for most of the time, allowing Eric and I to enjoy some adult conversation. We even got to hear Rebecca and Lily use their spanish while playing…they know a lot more than they let on!
Ice Cream!
Love these two cuties!

After lunch we walked around a little more and went to a new ice cream place…there are lots of places that sell ice cream downtown. This one just happened to be right around the corner from where we ate lunch. It was the perfect ending to an already great day.
