The countdown has begun

We're back in The Netherlands after a long haul from the South of France. Now the holiday is unofficially over..... Tomorrow Xenne will get his last vaccination shots, and the grueling task of packing will begin.... 50 kilos we can take as lugagge with an additional 30 as carry-on, It sounds like a lot but i can tell you it is not. Especially not if you have a lot of kids stuff to take with you. And don't forget that those 30 kgs of carry-on we need to drag around ourselves in addition to steering an active child in the right direction (or carrying him if he is too tired).

The hotel in Bangkok has been booked. It is a hotel that i know since my parents stayed there once so it'll be nice to go too after a long flight. In Burma we want to go to a hotel we know but somehow we hear nothign from them. Then again, i haven't heard anything from there in a over a week and i still need my papers from teh school for my visa. So maybe there are some problems with the internet there. Who knows.....

We'll be staying in a hotel for a few days in which we hope to find a decent apartment for 3 months. When we have that, we have a long period to look for a nice place.

Anyways, 'real' life is knocking on the door again. There's work to be done. In more than one way....
