Nearly 3 months already in Malaysia!

Yeah - finally have an oven that works - bread rolls created for pumpking soup!

Good to know what food helps your spleen!

Pumpkin Pig dumpling

Traditional Malaysian Laksa - not something to be repeated - required taste (Ian managed the best)!

Amber created red dragonfruit shake!

Ingenious use of shoes!

Fabulous artwork in Penang

Not looking over the edge of the 360 Bar!

Spent a morning at the fabulous Butterfly Farm

One of Poppy's favourite spots at school - the turtle pond!

Ouch - managed to scrape the car quite successfully - all sorted with much needed help from friends!

Now doing nails at home - takes forever though!

On our way back to Thailand to see fabulous friends for a few days!

Thank you Narelle for an awesome visit!!!!

We are still in the rainy season here (raining as I type) - can't believe we are in November already - sorry for the delay again but hope you enjoy!!!!

Lots of love from us all! X

May 2013

Oh yes - we haven't even left May and I'm on it!!!! Here is the blog for May! (not quite so cocky now realise photos not in order but here goes anyway!)

Poppy gave up waiting for bed whilst Amber was doing homework - and made her own!

Wonderful breakfast surprise!

Zumba bears waiting to be given to the best dancers of the class...

My fabulous fellow Zumba instructor Stephanie and I enjoy a little light lunch together?!

Fab sunset with friends in Jomtien (your lucky there's only one picture I took loads!)

After watching 'Hairspray' for the first time ever - Popy tries it herself!

My wonderful demonstrators - all young and young at heart - scary and great!

Our last trip to Koh Samed 

Poppy decided to have a henna unicorn...

Amber slightly more reserved with lovely butterflies..

Someone has to!

Too much iron man training!

Cool chick!

Penang, Malaysia - first bit of wild life - fab stick insect!

Mandy and I - how bizarre - from working in Tavistock Devon to Penang Malaysia!

Warming up for the football ahead

Doing the shuttle relay - silver again!

This should be at the end - no more Zumba for me for a while - not sure yet what has happened, something torn waiting for specialist tomorrow - not impressed!

Chilling whilst kids swimming (back in Fobissea with Barb!)

Our last lunch at The Big Chicken with the wonderful JoRonda!!! Miss you already!

Poppy playing with a fab screen at the airport in BKK.

Salsa evening - superb fun!

Back to the celebrations in Penang!

The coaches who worked so hard - superb games!

So as you can see we are still having a ball - about 5 weeks to go until we leave Thailand - we can't believe that nearly two years have passed and we've had the most amazing time and met fabulous people! More to come before we leave....!
