Back & gone again
I landed from the US on Saturday morning. It is now Tuesday evening and I am back on a plane for Bangalore. I was a bit of a write-off on Saturday morning, badly needing several hours sleep. Around 1 pm Tess and Sebastian headed out to a birthday party, which was when the gorgeous picture below was snapped. Sebastian wants to grow his hair long… I didn't think that would start for a few more years.
I had to do a few things at the office so off I went with the triplets where they were treated to Haagen Daz ice cream. The kids love the office whiteboards and enjoyed flexing their creative muscles. Then it was back home where we picked up Sebastian for rugby practise. The practise was quite good and the U9s were worn out by the end of the 90 minutes.
Sunday morning the triplets had a rugby tournament. During the three games Sela scored one try and Jasper scored two tries. Jasper was upset that he "always scores the tries last" not realising he had saved the day with his last minute scoring!
Sebastian's games were in the afternoon. The Saturday practise paid off – the team played very well the next day winning our first game 6-0. The other two games resulted in one loss and one draw.
I have now arrived in Bangalore, reaching my hotel at 3:00 AM to discover I have no reservation! I was supposed to be at the Taj Residency but there has been "one of those" annoying and frustrating misunderstandings. I am now in an el cheapo hotel. There are dogs barking outside and a howling cat nearby. In the hotel hallway the fire alarm battery is running low, sending off a pinging sonar sound every minute. Fortunately I'm so tired I'm sure I'll sleep over top of it.
