The school year is almost done...
We have a lot going on with the move to the new school site.
We head back to Australia on June 9th and arrive in Adelaide on June 10th at 8:10am from Singapore.
As the school is moving, the school will also have a new address effective from June 30.

Here are some of our last pics from this school year...

Molly is reading "Maisy Goes To The Fair".

I love that little voice and her American pronunciations.

Unfortunately, I am having some technical hitches with my pics today... I will try to upload more soon.!

April in South Korea

The sun is starting to shine!
Here are a few little pics of the last 3 weeks here in Korea.

A beautiful day to be by the lake

picnic time

A very safe place to run Molly

simple pleasures.

Happy Birthday to me...riding the cable car up to Seoul tower for lunch.

Spring trees and some blossoms at Seoul tower

Our traditional self timer shot- #1 with crazy eyes from Molly and Pete.

#2 with Molly and tongue (also this was #3 and 4)

finally with shot #6 we got it!

Easter bunny came...

...with lots of choccie eggs all over the place.

My big bunny teeth made short work of this one!

Off to Church for another egg hunt with our friends.

GO!

Molly loved it.

Now for the Easter family shot- NICE!

Molly's Pride Purpose and Passion Award

Molly was surprised to receive the award for her Kindergarten class for March.
She said to me later " I didn't know I was going to get an award". She was so excited when her name was called.

I was a little shy to go up on stage

I get to choose a pencil (this was almost the best part)

Look at that face!

 

 

Here is my certificate

I have uploaded some Madrid pics onto Facebook. Check them out by clicking here

Spain! (Days 1,2,3 in Barcelona)

We have arrived home safe and sound from our week in Spain...  long flights and too much airplane food were not the highlights of the week.
Thankfully there has been no jetlag from the 8 hour time difference in Spain.

CLICK HERE for a taste of our first 3 days in Barcelona.
Such a beautiful city on the Meditteranean. It had a real Sydney feel and buzz to it. The weather was superb here and so was the food and hospitality. We did enjoy the plentiful jamon (Ham), queso (cheese) and caffe con leche (coffee).
The old streets around La Rambla, Flamenco show, Markets and the Gaudi architecture were the highlights of our stay here.

Here are the kids at Park Guell with the Gaudi iguana in person!

March in Daejeon...

Jack was thrilled to be the Pride, Purpose and Passion award winner for his class this month.
I managed to capture his face as his name was read out...

Look how chuffed he is... and one of his friends is giving him a high five on the way past.

The next week we were invited to listen to Jack read some of his poetry from his portfolio of work.

Last weekend, the weather was nice, so we jumped into the car and headed out of town to the National Park. While spring is sort of in the air, there are no blossoms yet. It was nice to get a little warmth and to find a new place which we will definitely visit again later in the Spring.

ok, it doesn't look scary from this angle I agree.

Molly has turned into a giant!

Nice pic Dad!

A loo with a view!

The spiky stones to massage your feet.

We found a little friend

This spot would be lovely in summer!
