Carys got a tooth! I

Carys got a tooth! I am missing the triumverate more than I thought I could. Sebastian is throwing himself into the water and kicking and paddling. Its tough. My sister in law is using this vacation to spend time with her children and family and I am this languishing meatball of a morsel who is glad she made the effort for magnificent and his family, but ….

It is amazing how much time I have. Finished four books already, and reread the very excellent THE NUMBER ONE LADIES DETECTIVE AGENCY.

Here’s one of my earliest thoughts about antigua: there is a strong chinese influence. Lots of chinese takeaways and traditional medicine shops and herbalists. interesting.

More soon, from tess of the tan, that isn’t a burn who is also excelling on the beach volleyball court.

  1. Miss you and your blog! Glad you are relaxed and having a blast. Enjoy it, because before you know it you’ll be back home to the daily grind.
    I thought Antigua had a French-influence? Shows what I know…

  4. Good to hear you’re enjoying yourself. All is well here, the triplets have looked fine when I’ve seen them in the playground.
    Lita did ask if you remembered there is a Dr’s appointment for them on Tuesday at 10.00am – the day you get back. You may want to ring her about it.
    See you when you get back!

    Happy Birthday, darling! (To answer Lioness’ question – yes, today is Tess’ birthday – March 17th). Called you this morning but you were already out tanning/reading/watching Seb leap off the side of the pool/drowsing. Have a marvelous birthday, sweetheart, with your Magnificent Charles and Sensational Sebastian. We love you so much. And can only imagine the joy you will all experience upon returning to Hong Kong and see the triumverate again.
    Oodles of hugs and kisses,
    Mum and Dad xox

  13. Wow, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Sounds like you’re are in a lovely relaxing place. Enjoy it to the fullest. And yes I love Alexander McCall Smith’s books too. Hope you have time to read the next 4!
    I do understand about missing your trio. It’s hard when your heart is in 2 places at once. Sounds like they are in good hands though, so enjoy yourself and make some good memories to get you through the sometimes-tough days with your little ones.
    Best wishes,
