We drove the nearly three hours to my brother's house yesterday and settled in for a terrific day of Peru by proxy (what glorious photos they have of their trip there), Oui resort battles (I swear I beat my nephew at least one time; I swear I did), and a meal prepared by a gourmet chef (that would be my sister-in-law).
With us at all times were the family's three adopted cats (and by adopted, I mean rescued), who did not seem to mind our intrusion.
