We have grown by 2 more kids - and embarking on another trip to Thailand and Singpore!

Wow. It's been a while. A long while. Three years, to be exact. When we started this blog, back in 2010, we were a young, unmarried couple embarking on a 4-month trip in Asia. Then, 2 years later, we returned to Asia with a one-year-old baby. That one-year-old is now five and she has a sister and a brother who are just over 2 and a half-years-old - twins! We've done a lot over the past 3 years :-)

Tomorrow, we will be taking our first long trip since the twins were born. When they were 1, we went on a cruise through Europe - just one hour time difference. Last year, when they were just under 2 and our eldest was just over 4, we flew to Paris for a wedding and spent a few marvelous days in Disneyland Paris! And now, we will be flying to Thailand and Singapore!

In Thailand, we will be in Bangkok and Hua Hin, a smallish town that's close to the Wildlife Friends Foundation Thailand where we volunteered back in 2010. Remember? Talia was with the elephants and Rony was mostly with the bears.

We will be doing a day tour at the WFFT with the kids - we specifically planned Hua Hin just so we could come visit. Since the twins still nap, one of us (probably Rony) will go back to our Airbnb place with them after lunch while the other will stay with Sophie for the second part of the day. It looks like it will be an awesome experience!

In Singapore, we will be meeting our friend, Winnie, who we met at the WFFT - she also volunteered with the elephants. Last year, she visited Israel and we got to see her and this year we will be visiting her. It's just so awesome that we are still in touch with so many people who we met during our one week at the WFFT.

Anyway, stay tuned, we will be updated the blog while we are away. Now that we have all these children, we are significantly more tired than we were back in 2010 so we may not be as funny as before. We apologize in advance.

For now, wish us luck on our loooong flights to Bangkok. The kids don't know yet, but Talia made them each a bag of goodies for the plane that will, hopefully, keep them entertained for a nice portion of the flight.

See you soon!

This is for Chloe, our 2.8-year-old daughter. The lunch box is actually meant to hold the small pieces of the train set and the dinosaurs

This is for Sophie, the 5-year-old. She's easier to pack for because she can entertain herself more with workbooks and can also play travel-size games with us.

This is for Ethan, our 2.8-year-old son. The lunch box is actually meant to hold the small pieces of the train set and the dinosaurs

This is how they will receive their packages on the plane.
