It’s been a crazy month & 1/2 getting settled again, and the routine has finally begun. We’re enjoying the week-long holiday. Today a couple of Chinese teacher friends ventured over for an Italian lunch and cake making party.
We distributed portions of said cakes to a couple other teachers for their birthdays this week. Ella loved licking the frosting bowl, which was really too full to be given to a minor, and surprisingly she managed to keep most of it on herself.
Then we met up with Ella’s friend, Rachel, and her parents for some indoor swimming, which is quite perfect since the weather jumped recently from sweltering sauna to typhoon warnings.
We returned for some delivery McDonalds, and card games.
Tomorrow’s one of our last trips to HK Disneyland (our yearly passes expire next month), so we’ll go out with a bang. We’ve booked a night at the Disneyland Hotel, and we’ll pay over $25 a plate for Some Enchanted Breakfast that the children had better appreciate.
Thursday, we’ll go to the Evergreen Resort for the 2nd time. We went last month with Jared’s old classmate, Cinderella, and found it to be an Eden-like playground.
We’re bringing most of the other foreign teachers and their children with us on Thursday, and we get to pick up some pottery our kids made while they were there last time.
Friday, our last day of semi-vacation -poor Karl has to teach a few classes to the 9th graders, who never get much of a vacation- will be spent making up for our temple trip by watching the Haslam’s 5 kids so they can have a turn. I’ll write again if we survive.
