Life Lately

A lot has happened over the last year and a bit, maybe we'll recap sometime but for now, here are some photos of what we've been up to since we got back to Vietnam after our two months in South Africa.

We came back and stocked our fridge with chutney, wine, chocolate (thanks granny) and Nando's sauce (thanks Lyndall). A healthy looking fridge indeed!


Ross made us a lamp with one of the umbrellas we brought back from Myanmar. That paired with our string of colourful lights from Vietnam make for a rather festive lounge.


We haven't hired a new cleaner yet, but it hasn't been a problem since Ross does such a good job!


We've seen some interesting things on motorbikes and Ross was fast enough to snap this picture on our way home from school. The sling over the driver's arm is just the cherry on top.



Three sets of friends have moved into apartments right by each other, so on Saturday night we had a travelling dinner party / house warming for each of them. We started at Tom and Stacey's place and had starters, then moved on to Chris and Mel's for mains, and ended off at Lauren's for dessert. It was a really fun evening.

Stacey, Lauren, Nicola, Mel, Steve, Ross, Chris, Lauren, Mel and Tom.


Every weekend, we go for breakfast at our favourite restaurant, Eden. We're usually joined by our bunch of wonderful South African friends (featured above).


Going to the movies is one of our favourite pastimes. There are always interesting popcorn combos you can get and this weekend we got an awesome dog juice bottle and a free tote bag – score!


We were very worried about our plants over the vacation as we knew it was rainy season but we weren't sure if they would survive. Luckily we came back and they were thriving.
