DAY 51

Daniel - this one is for you. The kids have started doing taekwondo classes twice a week in the park round the corner from our house.

DAY 50

We are eating a lot of dal. Luckily, we all quite like dal, but while we wait for our pots and pans to arrive, our repertoire of meals is quite limited. I miss cooking big meals with lots of different ingredients. And cheese. I miss cheese.

DAY 49

The boys planned this, then the man arrived. It's much better with him in it.

DAY 48

... and moustache

DAY 47

My colleagues introduced me to this food stall outside our office - they do juices and sandwiches but my favourite is a plate of these fried potatoes with lemon, salt and a tiny bit of black salt which tastes kind of sulphuric. I'm not a huge fan but in small doses it works. Lemon on chips! You should try it - totally delicious.

DAY 46

Louie checking out the neighbourhood from our balcony.

DAY 45

You can just glimpse this building through the trees in a park in the middle of a roundabout near our house. We went to have a closer look today and found that it houses the Welfare Association for the area that we live in. The association looks after all the parks and rubbish collections etc. Apparently the building was originally a tomb but the two graves inside are no longer there. The tomb is more than 560 years old and being used as a government office... I love it!
