Another Busy Week

 It was another busy week. It seems like we managed the past few months to keep the stress and general busy-ness to a minimum. This week it seemed to explode. Andrew was working late into the evening almost every day. He was planning and setting up multiple events for the week. It was important because we were saying farewell to the senior defense official here at the embassy and welcome to the new one.

I got a little downtime to enjoy some lunch with a friend. We went to Mad Hatter’s Cafe. They made this absolutely delicious hot chocolate.

Thomas went on an excursion with his year group to Mosquito Island. It is shaped like a mosquito. The threat of actual mosquitos is low. They went to explore and start working on their next unit of inquiry - Where we are in place and time. They had a task of using the natural resources they could find on the island to build a shelter. Thomas had a bit of fun.

All the stress - events and preparing for moving hit us all. We needed to take this weekend to relax a bit. It seems we are all congested and feeling rather under the weather. Hopefully we can kick it as this next week will be equally busy.

Oh and I will leave a picture of this crazy critter that came to our house this week....
