...and a first message from Moo in Borneo (Lucky Girl)

Hi Janet and Isla here - It's really hot but it's a very enjoyable trip! Today we are going to go to the camp to do some work but we don't know what we are doing right this minute. The foods great weathers hot and no ones sick so far it's a great trip! We slept in a step in lodge and my friends and I had a little talk before we slept. Being on a plane for an afternoon is VERY tiring :)

Wedding in Sihong

Sara, Isla and I had a great night away at a friends wedding in the city of Sihong. It was an extravagant wedding and was great to see a modern Chinese wedding with the bride changing her dresses more times than you can count and tables piled high with delicacies (I will try most things, but could not partake in the turtle). 

HongKong baby!

Spoilt by a very dear friend to a tarts (bday) trip to HK, shopping, food, cocktails....and some sight seeing of course! Wonderful, refreshing break while Luke and the girls bonded in NJ.

          

When one travels business, you start with an entree and a wine :-) aaaah this is the life!

Up the Mountain

BBQ for family dinner.

To celebrate Grandma's birthday we went out for BBQ and beer at the local. It is dirty and sticky with Chou Dofu smells wafting from the neighbouring restaurant, but the food is fantastic and it is all freshly chared and comes on pointy sticks. Delish! 

This what Mia, Isla and LoLo are up to most days
