A Grand Full Day

This morning, myself, Pui, Pot, and Maid Go joined Justin and all of his new batch of (five) students for our monthly trip out to Ko Larn for a day at the beach.

When we got to the beach, however, it was not there. It was a record high tide, and the beach was literally only about 2 meters wide between the surf and the backing jetty. Fotunately, there were places to sit above the jetty, and the water was still warm and pleasant, and my standard order of 1 kilo of steamed crab was yummy as always.

Pui got mildly seasick on the boat ride home and has vowed to never go to the beach again. Go had a great time just sitting outside for a while and doing something fun. Pot... well you know Pot.

After getting back to shore, it was a quick ride back home to shower and then it was off to TQ2 for their annual kid's Halloween party. Pot wore his Batman costume. He wasn't too keen on the mask, and gave it to me. With the stretchy spandex material, I found that I could actually wear the mask myself. Once Pot saw that I was wearing the mask, he realized that it must indeed be a cool thing, and asked for it back.

There was a piƱata that the kids beat to a pulp but wouldn't break open. (Eventually Steve just bashed it repeatedly against the stage until it burst.) They played some Halloween movies, and there was obviously lots of candy.

From there, it was out to dinner with Justin and the students for Thai barbeque. Tasty as always. Then, home for a relaxing hour in front of the computer and then off to bed.
