This has been a hectic week for us. Scott has been busy revising his verbs and polishing up his grammar in Arequipa, he has been attending a weeks refresher course at our old language school. Anjanette has been busy working in the clinic , holding down the fort while Scott's been away, doing the school run, attending school activities, hosting visitors and getting locked out of the house! We have also been busy preparing for the school's international day, we contributed towards the UK exhibition, we made traditional foods, organised outfits for Jess and Sam and wrote out a small speech in spanish about the clothes Jess and Sam chose to wear in the parade. All very well until Samuel decided at the last minute (actually 0500 am the morning of the festival) to change his outfit from his kilt to his Indian outfit.
Our beloved Auntie Geetha keeps Jess and Sam in fabulous Indian outfits! As always the festival cultural was a great event. Right now however like many parents in the UK at present we are breathing a sigh of relief that it is the school hols, even if it is only 2 weeks it will be a very welcome break for us all !!!!
