It's been a week...

It's been a week since my last posting, and I gotta tell you guys. Nothing much has happened.

There was a funny moment at school one afternoon. A little boy, Michael, was eating his snack and we were trying to communicate. Then he got his cup full of milk. He was puffing up his cheeks at me, and it was cute. Then he took a large gulp of milk and puffed his cheeks again. This time I was pretty sure they weren't full of air. He was feeling his cheeks and suddenly he pushes on them. What happened? You can probably guess, milk squirted out of his mouth, onto the floor and down his front. The best part was the look of utter shock on his face. He had no idea that would happen. I smiled and laughed to myself as he looked around. The nursery teacher came over and chastised him for making a mess and then cleaned it up. It was pretty great.

I am nearly packed for my month vacation. I have no idea if I've packed enough, or the right things, but I did some evaluating of clothes, and I looked online for tips when traveling for a month. I think I'll be good. For those of you who haven't heard from my Gram or my Mom, here's the rough itinerary of where I'll be the next four weeks. We're starting out Sunday late and flying to Kuala Lumpur, from there going to jump down to Singapore for a day, then back up to Thailand…. We're going to try to spend some time on the beach, and up in the jungle. We don't have a set plan on that yet. Then we're going to jump in to Laos, and Cambodia. Going to the capitols, and spending two to three days there. Then, when we run out of time, we'll go back to Kuala Lumpur somehow and fly to Hong Kong. We have a retreat planned with the other teachers in our organization and after that I'll be heading back to Shaoxing. It's gonna be a lot to see and absorb in a short time, and I'm so excited.

I'll do my best to keep you updated as I travel. (Most of the places we'll stay at will have internet I hope)

Until next time.
