Christmas Time, Terrorists, Family, and Another Year Gone By

 

Our christmas presents courtesy of Pita and Tasi. We all had grand plans to wear our Arab attire to the airport to pick up the Cammocks. We thought airport security might appreciate our costumes. Sadly, it never came to fruition. However, we did all pile onto a mini truck and take a raucous ride around temple view making terrorist battle cries as we passed by generally bemused and confused onlookers.

 

Sky City shrouded by fog on a muggy summer eve - taken while waiting for Pita and Tasi to pick me up from the 5 star hotel we were all staying at courtesy of Tasi's cousin Jeff. We then headed for a late night snack at a cafe on the viaduct called 'chow' which served some of the best cuisine any of us had tasted at 11pm at night. mmmm, blue cheese wonton in a grape coulis dip, soy and garlic marinated beef ribs, battered mussels, and coconut cream and lamb curry.

My fav Asher outfit

Ashers first swim. He even went right under. He came up looking shocked his eyes as big and round as lemons. Everyone had a very excellent time having under water races, piggy back races, shoulder fights, water akido lessons, and general frollicking in the sun drenched school pool.
