last hurrah

saturday was the last trip for the season (everyone talks in years according to the school calendar) to the blue souq. jenny came with us this time - she's moving to malaysia with her family (they're from new zealand). i think we have a lot in common and would get along quite well...too bad!

while we were at the souq, serge and julian went to the beach club where julian cut his toe en route to the slide in the kiddie pool. he didn't cry when it happened, not when they were cleaning his wound, nor immediately afterwards. when did he cry? when he was sitting at home looking at the big bandage on his toe because it looked funny. tough kid.

today we had another coffee morning at sara's house and boy was it packed! a lot of people are leaving for vacation or leaving permanently this week, so it really was sort of a last hurrah. for me, anyway. until the fall!
