And we are off....again

We were up at 5am on the 28th for the beginning of our journey. The 2 days between Christmas and our departure were eventful with Tysei having a high fever and Shunsuke a nasty cold. So we dragged our less-than-healthy selves onto an airplane for the 7 hour trip to Malaysia. We stayed on a resort island called Langkawi. Let me say, it was just what the doctor ordered! After 10 days of sand, sun, ice-creams, corona's, spa treatments and catching up with friends...we feel like a million dollars! The return to chilly Kyoto was difficult, and every morning as I step into the ice cold shower....I remember the outdoor rainforest shower attached to our villa.....where the air was warm and the water was refreshing....ahhh memories carry me through it!!
FYI we meet up with 4 other families that we worked with at our former school in Japan. We have all since moved on to other schools/countries. Everyone is just the same and it felt like we had been together all along. It was a fantastic reunion!
