Week 220 and Week 132.5 - Last day of School

Greetings from Khao Lak, Thailand!  We are here for a short break.

Char had her last day of school on Wednesday.  So weird to be 4 and have a last day of school but here we are - in Asia - and Char has 2 years of school under her belt.

You forget how cute young school is.  Two of Char's good friends (Maleah and Jenny) won't be there.  Hopefully she can cope better with constant transientness.  I hope she can teach me a thing or two.

Gwen is also leaving - Maleah's mom.  I will really miss her!  Ack, I hate goodbyes...

Char also got her Capoiera belt this week - which was sort of ceremonial and not official but a really cool thing nonetheless.  She got to spar with the other kids in a circle - it was really cool.

I also got this new lens - and it takes beautiful pictures but is a manual only focus lens (why do I do this to myself?).  The 85mm f1.4 Samyang.  A beauty but silly lens for fidgety kids. 


Old pics - the girls at Veronica's spa - entertaining themselves with her phone:

Here is a video of Char getting her belt:


Attempt at a picture with the new lens out - fail!

Wendy was a much more amenable subject! :)

This lens makes it hard to get a wide angle.  So here is Char with the dragon - but really just Char:

We had an impromptu dinner with the 2 of us - as the 2 girls fell asleep in the car:

This cross arm maneuver made Charlotte so angry!

Sophia likes to tell 'time' with the Twister board:

We took Maleah to Qube - love the loaner pants.  We will miss you guys!
