Goa ゴア

Goa is on the west coast of India-my favorite spot in India! You can see why...
ゴアはインドの西海岸にあります。休暇で行って来ました。

Just in case you are wondering, Satoshi is the one with black T shirt, and Sawyer is the one with a long hair.

Beachー Meena's poem (美奈の詩 ビーチ）

Beach
The blue ocean spray brings back yesterday.
The waves so wet and foamy, crash into my face,
and leave seashells as clean as lace.
The warm sand, brings my hand, toward the land.
The seashells so exquisite, so pretty, some are cute as a kitty.
And seeing the fish answers my every wish.

(The girl in the picture is Meena.) 写真の後姿の女の子は美奈です。

Christmas Carolers

Friends from our local church came to our house to sing Christmas carols. We were so blessed.

Meena's Birthday last November

Meena celebrated her birthday with two girl friends who came for a sleepover. They enjoyed a lot of fancy teatimes together!

Hiroko's birthday in November

Roger and the children made a beautiful breakfast for Hiroko's birthday: fresh-squeezed orange juice and berry yogurt (from canned blueberry pie filling and fresh strawberries and pomegranates), boiled brown eggs, tofu sausages and multigrain bagels. It was beautiful and filled with love. The pie filling (being imported) and strawberries are only found in a special shop, and the locally-baked bagels only recently came into the market.
