Can I just say, I gotten so good at cooking Thai food, muffins, pizza and salads that I really have to post this...I'm really really pround of my thin crust pizza (photos coming soon)...
I am actually thinking there may be room for a shift a careers..Once I finish my masters in ED I'm going to cooking classes...

So to the right we have:

Tom Yam Soup...spicy but light - great for weight loss!!!
Basil Chicken
Plain Rice

Feeling great about this year, guys? I do. We've got some superb trips lined up...Japan is looking good for April - we're trading the snow for cherry blossoms and our boots for trainers and flip flops...Then Romania...a 5 wks extravanganza at home...can't wait...Andrei bless him mentions Cluj every other day ..:)

We've got a lovely lady who comes and does our dinner and it's been fabulous...had stir fried veggies and ssour soup for dinner ...that's me, cause dieting has started 2 weeks ago...yay!!! After 2 kids I'm ready to get into my old clothes:)

Happy New Year!

Japan postponed...:(

Well, unfortunately a combination of unfortunate events(Ake's mom broke her leg...poor woman) and sky high prices for flights to Tokyo (nearly a 50% increase to travel in December) mean that we wont make it this December to Japan...

We've initially set on a 3000/ 4000 euro budget for it, but a quick overview of travelling expenses meaning flights + train passes alone would have meant 2500...ummmmm...

Not to despair though...Japan is still top of the list...but...will take on noodles and sashimi in April...fingers crossed there'll still be some snow left on the peaks for good snowball fight...

Sooo...APRIL=sakura blossoms...end of November possibly a quick trip to Kuala Lumpur...

Otherwise, life is superbly serene in our corner of the world...:)

Photos of our Vienna trip this summer...and our castle..:)

Trips

Where to go? where to go? We've got some holidays approaching quite fast and early booking is essential... We're still not sure how December will be...but if we've got our finances sorted we'd love to go to Japan. Ski if possible...Now the only thing is Japan seems quite expensive...15 euro meals for 4 , 3 times a day...it adds up...it's a wait and see, but highly likely that will happen.

Now October...that's manageable....I've love to take the kids to an elephant camp..but that's WAAAY up north and traveling overland with 2 kids...ummm...it's a lot of entertaining...

or...we could just go to the beach...:)))...

We've moved house!!!

Bangkok traffic - not for us thank you!!! We are now walking to school and work. We've moved into this posh condo next door from the school in the heart of Bangkok...pool, tennis courts, squash, gym, sauna, playgroung, library...ahhh, that's the life!!!!

Coming very soon...photos of our place and views of Bangkok!

 
Waiting anxiously for my parents to get here...for another year, TOGETHER in Thailand. It cant get any better folks! Except perhaps if next year granny comes for a short visit...Granny, who's never had a pasaport has decided to visit us...

YAY!

 
Back from Romania and short stop in Austria...cant quite get over how beautiful it all was...
We're very very excited about our own little house and the garden around which is just heaven. Lots and lots of pictures with Andrei and Sofia running around like crazy...some wild days we had...
Aahhh, good old European summers...:)
