This is what our beautiful little girl looks like right now. The poor thing can't open her left eye as the lid is so swollen. This is result of her bacterial skin infection rearing its ugly head again. So yesterday I got some antibiotics for her. Thankfully they actually have it in syrup form. Most times you have to open up a capsule and divide up the grains or crush tablets... a pain in the neck. Today her eye is a little less swollen. Sometimes she tries really hard to open her left eye and then the right one gets really big. It is quite the look...

The second photo is how you "barbeque" chicken satay without a barbeque... takes forever, but tastes good...

Hugo and I are now done unit 8 and we both had positive evaluations. Now we have two weeks off. I think this is because the elementary and high schools here are off too and their holidays are not long at all. So we have 6 more weeks of living here in Bandung and then Aug 3rd we will fly out to Papua, the Lord willing.

So far the kids are doing pretty well. On Friday our friends who lived near us left for Papua so right now we are the only MAF family in the area until the middle of July when a family from Holland is due to arrive.

This week we hope to spend three nights in a cottage near the city of Bogor. There is a safari there and open green spaces to play... The kids are pumped! (so are the parents...)
