Tennis in Duitama

After spending a fun couple of days in Villa de Levya, we went to Duitama for another 3 days. Eduardo's dad and nephew came with us while his sister took a bus back to Bogota to work. Duitama is the city that Eduardo grew up in and his two best friends still live there. It is always exciting for us to see his old house, his best friends, visit old favorite places but this time it was even more of a special visit....his dad built a tennis club on land that he still owns there. We had heard about these courts for 2 years and had not been. It was exciting for Ana Maria to play on the courts, even I played a lot of tennis there!
Eduardo taught a lot of mini clinics for the kids and helped teach the pros a little. It is an amazing place that his dad always dreamed of having. We are fortunate we got to visit and spend a lot of time there.
Eduardo and I imagine us spending a lot of summers there when Ana Maria and Kathryn get older, speaking Spanish with friends and playing tennis all day...what could be better!!








There were a lot of horses and cows around the courts









These are pictures of Eduardo's old house. It was in the contract when they sold it that he could always go back and visit! :)





*The tennis courts are on the land in front of the house which his dad still owns.
