Overall Capture of the month

Jonas my brother in law came to stay with us here in Egypt during Easter holiday and he was here for almost one week.
That week, Carrie came with her daughter Sama who just arrived from States for her vacation here together with her little sister Didi, her brother Salman, her cousin and her friend for a nice get together Fondue dinner.



We brought in the garden table to join the dinning table together as we were 12 people together.


The dinner were more relaxing as we catch our turn to cook ourself on the table with the fondue stick and chat away through the night.
Carrie and all her family has been a very close friend to Peter since 20 years back. Having to meet them again is just wonderful as they exchange the stories during the past years.


That following week, it was my very good friend Sarah Guzetti birthday. Since she will have to go to work the next following day, she was not so keen to go out that night and celebrate.
She bought an ice cream cake and we went over to her house that night.
Unfortunately, I have not taken any photo of her on that day.
This one photo of Sarah was taken few months before her birthday.
Happy Birthday Sarah and may your dreams throughout the year be full filled and happiness will always be with you.


On the 29th March 08, a friend to us who loves ridding so much have made a plan to go ridding that day. We met Sheikh Khaled in the farm and surprisingly her beautiful jumping horse was already saddle and ready. Excitedly after being here in Egypt for the past years, finally she managed to get chance to ride again.
Actually after that day, she came back ridding the next following week again.



Well, this is the closest horse in which you can see me ridding on. Even my son was much braver than the mother.

This is Gabriel and he gets to ride the same pony each time we there. He called it "his horse" now.

AND this is little 3 years old Anita. After seeing Gabriel on the horse and her mom Anna on a horse too, she is not afraid at all to be sitting on the horse. Ashamed of myself who is on top of that big horse above. hahaha


Sheikh Khaled bought us around to all his beautiful horses. One of them were a small tiny baby pony.

Peter came back home one day and gave me a bunch of flowers. It's lovely and very sweet of him.




That very same week, my house was also in a total mess. We have different workers who came everyday to change the bedroom flooring, breaking and banging the tiles in our toilet to installed a new sets of bathroom, painting of ceiling in the living room and moving up the AC. The dust around the house was just unbearable and their work have lasted for several weeks.
After the last day of completion of the toilet, to our surprised, they have broken and cracked our bath tub. We called and they came in the next following day to break again all the tiles that they have just put up. It is always a total mess here to get things done perfectly.

The weather in Cairo is also not that fantastic either lately. Been very Cloudy, windy and sandy with the sand storm.
We are waiting for the nice continous sun to stay so we could get our pool up in the garden.

HOPE FOR A NICE SUMMER THIS YEAR.
