2008 in review - Part 2

Let's continue our trip of 2008!

April:

In April, I went with Lucas and his Kindy class to a vegetable market excursion. I have really enjoyed all the different trips they do in school.



Anna, Maria and I went to Singapore for the day, did some shopping, had some lunch with wine (because we could!) and went to IKEA of course:



Lucas had the Kindy mascot, Maisy, home for a week. She got taken around everywhere, it got documented and later scrapped in the school-book:



We went to Australia, to celebrate Granddad's birthday in the Hunter Valley with the family, and to tourist a bit around in and around Sydney. We also saw some Swedish friends of mine while we were there:









May:

Linnea had her first haircut:



Lucas had to make a trip to Ripas Hospital, after having drunk mosquito repellant. He was fine though, but better safe than sorry:



Team SWE attempted a climb of Mount Kinabalu. Unfortunately, as you might remember, we weren't allowed to go up to the peak, due to the bad weather... But hey, we had a great weekend anyway:





We were invited to High Tea at the Empire, with another Swedish delegation from Singapore.



June:

June was a really, really busy month. Linnea went to visit her Kindy she was going to start in this year:



The Swedish National Day was celebrated with kladdkaka, together with the Danes (...):



Anna and I got published, in the magazine SWEA, in Singapore:



We went all venetian, for the big Loan Service Summer Ball:



The whole family went to the cinema for the first time here in Brunei, and saw Kung Fu Panda:



We celebrated Midsummer with "Team SWE" and said goodbye to Maria and Andy, who left Brunei for new adventures in Germany:



We were in school to watch the Sports Day activities and cheer on Lucas:



I took part in my first scrap crop, and won a prize!



Nathan went along to the pet shop, for another school excursion:



The end of the school year saw a big celebration, with the kids singing beautifully for us:
