The elementary school ceremony was this morning. It was more or less the same as the junior high school, but the kids are smaller and funnier, especially in the audience. They got tired and bored and fidgeted a lot. My principal drove me to the school, ... Read more >

Out for a stroll...

Sun, 22 Mar 2009 | By abcarlson | Views [684] | Comments [1]

I saw this group of daycare kids and their caretakers out for a stroll the other day and had to get a photo.  Have you ever seen a four-child stroller?!  It looks like it hinges in the middle to allow the kids in/out.  The kids in front face towards ... Read more >

Instant coral reef, just add water...

Sun, 22 Mar 2009 | By abcarlson | Views [696]

When we walked down for our daily sunset at the Sea Wall, we were surprised to find exposed coral reef instead of water directly beyond the Sea Wall barrier.  Naturally, we decided to climb the barrier and explore! It was so neat to be able to see some ... Read more >

Mon, 16 Mar 2009 | By peter_allen | Views [547]

Friday was the graduation ceremony for the 3rd grade students. It was a very formal deal, we had to wear black suits and there was an improbable amount of bowing involved. Fortunately I was having dinner with Galen and Marcus, two American ALTs, the ... Read more >
