The trip to Hong Kong to see my family was wonderful. (The last time i was in Hong Kong was when we were stranded there during 9/11) I now have more beautiful memories and enjoyed seeing new, different and even more magnificent sights, an especially stunning one tucked away in a peaceful respite of the bustling city was HK Gardens with a misty view of the skyscrapers in the distance.
Back at school it was time for our annual upper class musical. This year it was “HAIRSPRAY” and the students has so much fun learning the songs and ’50-60’s style dancing, circa Dick Clarks American Bandstand. Even the fact that the lights went out on the closing night performance didn’t dampen their amazing spirits.
In Thailand the schools love competitions, costumes and parades, And of course our school participated and won 2nd place overall out of 23 schools. Here are a few photos from the Kindergarten Sports Day parade. Hot, hot, and the parade went down the street with cars coming and going on the other side while onlookers hug out of second story windows. Then the competition games began while we melted!
After that it was time for me to do another REPS School assembly show with the little kids. Since it is the rainy season in Thailand and the students were learning the English names for colors we learned the song, “It’s a Rainbow.” Happily we colored rainbows for headbands, then we sang...
We have had lots of rain but so far, thankfully, no floods like last year.
Behind every rain storm there is a shining rainbow somewhere...enjoy!
Rain, Rainbows, Sunshine and Blessings from Thailand.
