Bali Dreaming



Where in the World is Daddy? - that's the title of the map and calendar on our fridge. Over the course of eleven days Brian is traveling for work to Penang, Malaysia; Bankok, Thailand; and Jakarta, Indonesia. This adds three countries to his already impressive list of countries visited. 

Meanwhile, the girls and I are weathering a particularly rainy cold snap back home in Sydney. We are occupying ourselves with a lot of craft and a little more eating out than usual. Both girls have discovered babycinos - a coffee-free kids version of the cappuccino that consists of steamed milk with chocolate powder on top. 

While our US friends are sending us their end of the school year pictures we are listening to the driving rain and cozying up to the two places in our apartment with heat - the living room and Brian and my bedroom. The girls have electric blankets on their beds so we warm up their beds before they climb in. 

We have one more week of school and then we will have two and a half weeks off for July holidays. This allows us some time to relax and do play dates with friends and then it gives us the opportunity for our next exciting international trip - Bali!

We will be in Bali for six days. I've showed the girls a few photos from our hotel and they are getting really excited. Emily has a friend who went there and stayed in the same hotel and said that it has the largest water slide in the whole wide world! I'm pretty sure this last bit won't hold up to vigorous fact checking but I'm not making a thing of it.
