A night on the town

The Chief thought we were doing such a terrible job of cooking the food ourselves that he intervened.
Of course the food tasted fantastic.
Great little restaurant - opposite flower street!!!


The proud Chief


Outside it was freezing cold.
Thanks Judith, Dianne and Rebecca for welcoming me to Promenade (my new apartment).

Construction

Each day on the walk to school from Promenade I go past this amazing construction site on the side of the cliff.

There's a policeman there and he makes sure not one stone is left on the road when the construction guys leave at the end of the day. They sweep and wash and sweep some more until he is happy :)

You've go mail

Fantastic my first letter. Yes I can read my name!!!

Following the instructions for a cup of tea.




As instructed by Sonya a glamourous pic of the Star Hotel Kimono

The slow road ......

Dear Readers of my Blog,
Sorry for the long absence. I haven't been successful yet in connecting the internet to my apartment and have been really slack in updating my blog. Way too busy at school to even think about blogging.
Ideally that situation will change soon and I'll get back on track.
There's so many interesting things happening here.
Please be patient and I'll get busy.

Adds new meaning to walk the dog

Every second person is doing it this way.
The dogs have the cutest little coats to keep them warm.
