Today we went up to the tracks just so we could get Internet connectivity. That seems like a waste of time, but we have no cell reception at the B&amp;B so therefore Dad cannot make a hot spot.<\/p>\n<p>So we went up the hill and checked our emails. While Mom and Dad were checking theirs on the computer, I played Hearts and Sudoku. We then searched for the elusive cat-like footprint in the ground that Mr. Strobel had shown us two days before. We couldn\u2019t find it and finally left the area at 6:12 pm, eighteen minutes before supper was to be. (I\u2019m sure that you, Danny, could have found the print. You might have even eaten the poor mammal!)<\/p>\n<p>After a supper of \u2018comfort food,\u2019 as Mom called it, we talked to Mr. Strobel in Afrigermish, which is his mix of Afrikaans, German, and English.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s very hard to follow.

As soon as he had left the room, I turned to Dad and said, \u201cWhat???\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now it\u2019s time I finish writing, dear Dinosaur.
