USA - Day 4 - Auburn, AL

Second day in Auburn. No big plans for today, we have to leave town early in the afternoon to go on a week-end in Florida (are we going to see alligators?). Downtown Auburn and the University look very peaceful and welcoming, we check out the campus and all the baby and outdoor stores we can find. Me, predictable? Noooo...

Papi and Mamie are there as well, they arrived a day after us in Alabama. Good occasion to have someone else take care of my bath.

Can you tell we are in Auburn? I could be the official mascott for the next Aburn tigers game.

Scouting Auburn campus. My future university maybe.

Mamma misses her Top Model years. Does not she look super cute when she poses?

Trainig my abs and back muscles at home. I don't really like laying on my tummy, I am not crawling yet. Maybe I'll skip this step and learn how to walk instead.

USA - Day 2 - Auburn, AL

The trip was very long, the whole family needs to rest today. We decide to visit Auburn, look around, enjoy the day. Obviously, the first store I notice on the way to downtown is "Alabama Outdoors": I love this kind of store, they have all kinds of gear, nice clothes... Mom and Dad already taught the most essential values in life. How come Vincent and Katie never noticed that store!

Half an hour later, we get out of there with a new goal for today: to find the small bouldering area they told us about, a few miles down the road. We'll spend the afternoon with some locals discovering the 2 boulders they have there: so nice to be outside on a sunny day.
The off-road 3-wheel-drive stroller that once again brought me to destination. Iam in the first row to watch Mamma and Papa climb.

We found 2 boulders a few hundred meters from the road. Enough to play this afternoon. Mom shows the locals how to do it. She rules!

Still a little jet-lagged but I like being outdoors. It is so warm that I can even be half-naked.

Papa almost made it to the top of this problem. A little too hard for him, but a good project for this afternoon.
