Day 4: Biking and Bonfires

Alice's fever did not abate on day three, so she mostly played around the house, with the toys and water table.  Simon showed no signs of a fever and was in excellent spirits the whole time.

The one good thing about Alice being sick is that she's a lot snugglier and wants to cuddle more.

She managed to rally enough in the afternoon for a brief kayak ride and a short bike ride around the neighborhood.

Alice had helped Nelson pick up sticks in the yard (she's a natural) and he must have explained that they were for a campfire, because for the previous two days she'd asked for a campfire.  It had been too windy, but this evening was calm enough for one.  It turned out she didn't really like it though, because there was too much cracking and popping.
