This morning we spoke with Opa and Oma, who just came back from a camping trip with Ettie & Gerben, and then we left to the Frying Pan Farm.

Nora was looking forward to it and remembered her previous visits. She knew where the turkeys where, and the pigs, and we both wanted to see the horse ("aan het nadenken") but the horse was somewhere else this time.

We had a good time. Nora even touched a calf ("aaien!"). She was very impressed by the sheep shearing and wasn't sure what to make of it.

We spent maybe an hour on the farm but it tired her. When we were on our way back we passed the poultry barn and I asked: "wil je de kalkoenen weer zien?" (would you like to see the turkeys again) and she said that no, she'd prefer to go home. Then she said: "en de kalkoenen gaan naar huis." -- she projects her own situation on others. When Nora gets tired, she will start talking about how other things "start to sleep". So she'll see kids and then say: "de kindertjes gaan slapen" -- a sure sign that she is tired.
