Faries in Liceo Boston

i think that i have discovered a fairy garden in my new school, Liceo Boston! There is a path that goes along the back of the school houses and along the side of the Chapel. There is a tiny little stream that runs through a ditch lined with bricks and moss and little white flowers growing up the sides. A long the stone path there are tiny little stumps with beautiful flowers springing up on all sides. But the thing that really stunned me was at the very end of the path before it turned in to the last classroom and the steep steps that lead up the mountain to the buses there was a huge stump with little "windows" carved into it. Springing up above it is a huge bright red windmill!

Once i was walking along that path after a particularly good 45 minute break. i was by myself (as i usually am when I am on that path) when something caught my eye, there was two little white lights darting about in the "windows" of that stump filling it with light. This is true and if you don't believe me you will just have to come to colombia and if for some reason you can't make it? Well then, you will just have to believe in magic...

  3. I believe! I believe! Leave them yummy cake crumbs and see what happens next. Cannot wait to hear more of your adventures with Spanish speaking fairies! (Do they speak Spanish?) Maybe you can teach them some Irish step dancing. They would surely love that.
