Diego the Model

Last weekend we dropped Diego off at the beach.  We were able to spend a night at the beach, enjoying some family and beach time, before heading back up the mountain.  Diego was a good sport on the beach, allowing himself to be buried on two different occasions.  On the first occasion, Marta, Silvia, and Daniela enjoyed dressing Diego in a sunhat and glasses, while pouring water over his head.  Diego was quite the good sport when Daniela accidentally threw sand in his face on several occasions.

The next day, we buried Diego again.  Daniela, Silvia, Ernesto, Diego, and I dug a deep hole which we then convinced Diego to lay in.  The rest of us then piled more and more sand on top of him.  Once it was clear that Diego could not escape from the hole without some help, Ernesto peed on him (through his swim trunks).  During the process, a 60-something year old woman watched in amusement, commenting on the aguita caliente (hot water).  No one would help Diego from the hole, except his younger cousin, Daniela, who used a plastic shovel to help dig him free.
