Shopping Day/Día de Compras (ING - Esp)

We arrived early in the center of Santiago de Cuba, where the main stores of the city are located, and we began to visit some of them to buy what we needed, and this time we went for personal hygiene items, cookies, and clothes for the girls, since they are growing up and almost everything has been left behind because they are in the teenage stage, and as parents it is also our duty to dress and shoe our children.

El ambiente navideño se extendía por toda la tienda ,con adornos , decoraciones y regalos navideños, estaba muy colorida la tienda.
Compramos lo que necesitábamos en ese momento en el hogar y las niñas vieron unas deliciosas galletas de chocolate y enseguida idearon comprarlas para comerlas con helado en la chocolatería, que está muy cerca de la tienda , además ya era hora de una merienda y que mejor merienda que galletas con helado de chocolate.

The Christmas atmosphere was spread throughout the store, with Christmas decorations, ornaments and gifts, the store was very colorful.
We bought what we needed at that time at home and the girls saw some delicious chocolate cookies and immediately thought of buying them to eat with ice cream at the chocolate shop, which is very close to the store, besides it was time for a snack and what better snack than cookies with chocolate ice cream.

Los rayos de sol atravesaban los cristales del salón de la heladería, por eso no quedaron mejor las fotos, pero no por eso dejé de hacerlas ya que eso forma parte de sus recuerdos.
Para nuestra sorpresa también había fresa y pudimos disfrutar de una merienda tal y como ellas deseaban.
Luego continuamos nuestro recorrido en busca de la ropa y los zapatos que queríamos comprar.
Seguimos revisando otras tiendas pero no encontraba nada para ellas , hasta que llegamos a una tienda de ropas confeccionadas, pero muy lindas y muy bien hechas, y sobre todo a muy buen precio.

The sun rays were shining through the windows of the ice cream parlor, which is why the photos didn't turn out any better, but I didn't stop taking them because that's part of their memories.
To our surprise, there was also strawberry and we were able to enjoy a snack just as they wanted.
Then we continued our tour in search of the clothes and shoes we wanted to buy.
We continued looking at other stores but couldn't find anything for them, until we came to a store that sold ready-made clothes, but very pretty and very well made, and above all at a very good price.

Quedamos muy satisfecha con la compra realizada y supe por la dependienta que está tienda era recién creada y que ha tenido muy buena aceptación por la población, ya que a pesar de ser confeccionadas tienen muy buena calidad y son muy vistosas y lo más importante para mí es que a mis hijas le gustaron y son muy parecidos los juegos ya que me gusta vestir las casi iguales.y es que así no creo diferencias entre ellas,algo que debemos tener en cuenta en la crianza de nuestros hijos para que ninguno se sienta superior o inferior al otro y además me gusta mucho verlas así.

We were very satisfied with the purchase we made and I learned from the saleswoman that this store was newly created and that it has been very well received by the population, since despite being made, they are of very good quality and are very attractive and the most important thing for me is that my daughters liked them and the games are very similar since I like to dress them almost the same. And that way I don't create differences between them, something we should keep in mind when raising our children so that none of them feels superior or inferior to the other and I also really like seeing them like that.

Esas sonrisas de felicidad, son mi mayor alegría y saber que a pesar de las dificultades y los altos precios pude complacerlas y tener un lindo día me hacen aún más feliz, y es que las madres y los padres siempre debemos estar al tanto de todas las cosas que necesitan nuestros hijos ,ya sea material o espiritual y dar respuestas acertadas a sus necesidades es lo que marca la diferencia en la vida de ellos y nos convierte en algo especial para sus vidas.

Those smiles of happiness are my greatest joy and knowing that despite the difficulties and high prices I was able to please them and have a nice day makes me even happier, and it is that mothers and fathers must always be aware of all the things that our children need, whether material or spiritual, and giving correct answers to their needs is what makes the difference in their lives and makes us something special in their lives.
