13 July
We got Maiev back from the kennels, she had just been bathed and still had the classic repugnant 'wet-dog' smell. Her damp fur stuck to your fingers when you stroked her. She seemed happy enough.
Otherwise, a quiet day to recover from the long drive.
14 July
Well, a sport's watching day, mainly. With the men's Wimbledon final, Alcaraz beat Jokavitch, the Euros' football final, Spain beat England, and the Americas Soccer final Argentina beat Columbia, it was a day spent largely in front of the TV.
We also went shopping for two Lego sets:
The space shuttle discovery, with the Hubble telescope for Robbie and I.
A bunch of roses for Madelyn and Jo.
I will take a picture at the start and end of each bag, so that we can estimate the time taken.
Here's how we started:
| At timestamp 20240714_163301 we had the bags out of the big box and on the table, where construction will occur. There are 17 numbered bags, one unnumbered bag and one bag with the same number as another. The box is rated 18+. Here we have the two children and all the bags, nicely sorted into their numerical order. |
| At timestamp 20240714_165100, construction has begun. So far, only the stand for the Hubble telescope has been assembled. In the background, at the far end of the table, is a Lego heads puzzle that we bought at Lego land. Time taken: 18 minutes. |
| At timestamp 20240714_174351, the Hubble telescope construction is complete enough to put on the stand. |
| At timestamp 20240714_182201, the Hubble build is complete. Time taken:39 minutes |
