HKG135: The Flying Pan

today dawned cloudy with a high probability for rain (or tears). as soon as we were up and at 'em, the kids and i headed out to the flying pan for breakfast. it turns out that i was right that my navigation system does not know where this place is. while standing less than 50 yards from it, my navigation system was giving me directions to walk the opposite direction for about 2 miles when all i actually had to do was walk a few feet to my right, turn right, and go straight up a hill. bleh. since we started out the trip "listening" to my navigator, it took us a bit, but we found the restaurant, and we had a yummy, if somber, breakfast.

after our break-the-routine breakfast, we came back to the apartment to chill a bit. both kids sprawled across the couch looking super sad while they watched finding nemo. we chose to watch finding nemo because our friend, c, has this way of speaking that is much like nigel, the pelican in the movie. *sniff*

after moping for a while, i gathered the kids up to go to the pool for a bit, but that turned out to be a bust b/c it started raining soon after we got there. despite it being hot here, our pool is not very warm b/c it is mostly shaded. the combination of being in cold water while cold water splashed down on us from above caused two of us to have blue lips. livie, our little polar bear, could have stayed in the pool for another hour or so without showing the least bit of discomfort.

this afternoon, josh came home early so we could head over to a travel agent near us to see about booking a cruise this summer. we are looking at a cruise to vietnam and should hear by tomorrow whether we're able to get space on it. i sure hope we are, because it sounds awesome!

silly bug....she wanted to listen to music while she also was having her ears cleaned/treated after swimming :-)

my personal coffee thermos...the coffee was not as strong/good as it was when josh and i had a late dinner at this same restaurant, but it was still enough to do the trick.
