Pizza Boat - A Weekend Adventure

-

The Kiddo grows and we are less than a month until her 5th birthday.  When did this happen?  Didn’t we bring her home like 5 minutes ago, not five years!  I had a FitBit then and I remember driving home and having a heart rate at almost 100 and the first time I needed to brake hard or was passed quickly that my heart rate spiked into the 140s.  She was so small.  Couldn't talk, couldn't eat solids, she couldn't even lift her own head.  


Now, she’s staying up late and coming out with us at night.  She’s taking a boat tour of the river with J and myself.  She’s asking to try food.  She’s giving her opinions and asking questions about things.... about EVERYthing. 


Normally, I’d have a thousand words on this weekend.  More, probably.


Not this time.  Today, I’ll let the pictures tell the story.  


Friday night- Out with friends and two other couples from the building.  J works with one half of each of those couples.  The other half are the stay at home Dad and the fiancé.  T and M brought their new lil man (8ish months) and the other couple are kid friendly.  We went to a place that does food and beer and the like.  Playground and music.  Kiddo was great and had fun.









Saturday night- River boat trip.  Food and drinks on the boat.  Saw temples.  Saw people who waved at us and the houses and people along the way all had smiles.  Some of the places had kids that were swimming or playing or just hanging out and Kiddo waved and yelled to them and they waved and yelled back.  I just sat back and loved the girls.  It was great and we got to see so much.



















































































































Enjoy the pics, if you have questions you can email or comment and we will do our best to reply in good time.

Yeah, it was a private charter. We could have up to 8 people in the boat, but after 5 people there was a joiner fee added. If, when you and E get out, you'd like to experience, we can set that up for you... Or join you for the adventure, if you'd like us to join in the fun. A cooler and ice is provided as well.

Working on setting this up and making it more to our liking and style.  I wanted to get something up, just so we have a placeholder and a little welcome to anyone coming over and wondering if this is really A, J, or the Kiddo. Also, it gives me a chance to try putting some media up as well.  Pics AND Videos???  Can it really be???? Cheers fro now and we'll be back to write more later.  Have a great day and thanks for poking us here to see that we are all still ok.

On being brave

I was laying in bed the other night and I was just awake and thinking.  I was thinking, specifically, about Kiddo and how brave she is in a lot of ways.  Moving across the world with J and I (not that she had much choice) was brave.  Quarantine.  Going to a school with mostly Thai kids.  Making friends.  Losing her tooth.  All of it.  She is so brave.   Even her attitude.  That want to see more of the world and to explore it.  Her willingness to go to markets with J and myself and eat bugs.  Last summer in Vietnam and just trying pho or banh mi while we walked down a street.  Getting lost with J in the rain in HCMC and having that adventure.  Her excitement to travel 30,000 miles this summer.  Her excitement for Shanghai and wondering how it will be different, better/worse, and what kind of ‘interesting and fun things to do” once we get there.   As I lay in the dark being a proud papa, I couldn’t help b...

A weekend in the life of Kiddo

We have our LA and SF trips set.  We are going to find some time this week to plan and set the Wisco trip and then the Mexico trip, but one step at a time.  J is looking at properties in MX for us and we will book that all soon.  Then, it’s just tying up life here, selling off our stuff, packing and getting ready to move and then it’s just airplanes, airports, and adventures. It’s not all busy work though.  We are still having some fun.   J needed to go to school on Saturday to drop off some of Kiddo’s stuff that she is repurposing to her classroom.  Puzzles and books that Kiddo aged out of and what better place than a Kindergarten classroom.  Perfect solution and better than trudging them into town and getting next to nothing selling them for credit only to acquire more books to drag around the world.  New books can wait for Shanghai, if at all, because J and I are on Kindles and Kiddo is mainly on the iPad and Epic for her books.  The l...
