We went off on a short jaunt, over to Krabi, via Singapore (the long way to shave costs). I've been washing and shopping and all the dreary unpacking. All holiday joy long forgotten. Well, not forgotten but momentarily feeling a long way off.
But something that made me smile, as we settle back into our pedestrian routine, is the kids asking if they can drink from the tap in the apartment (we moved a week before we left for the holiday). Young travellers take so much in their stride more than we ever did.
As I struggle to wake up in the mornings (and go to sleep at night), my body clock refusing to move back into local time, even though the time difference was just a few hours, I am struck by the thought that sometimes it's the smallest change that is hardest to accommodate. Maybe we need to allow ourselves a little more slack when it comes to embracing change. Even the small ones need a little time for adjustment.
Looking forward to writing again, and I trust everyone had a wonderful holiday or at least a fabulous long weekend!

ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Missed you :)
ReplyDeleteI'm very sad the school holidays are over too. Boo hoo. I agree, kids are so much more savvy about certain things than we ever were.
ReplyDeleteWelcome home! Kids are like sponges, aren't they? They soak up all the things! Thanks for linking up with The Ultimate Rabbit Hole.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back, hope you enjoyed the break x
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a lovely break. Asking if I could drink straight from the tap was one of the first things I asked when we first moved to Australia. I was 4 :)
