Boys....and mud
Lovely day by the sea. Yes, all day. Took Juno out sailing with another family. Perfect weather and great company. There was a gentle breeze that was simply delightful. Bless the North East Monsoon. It's very rare to be out in Singapore all day and not get all hot and sticky. Best part - the boys had a whale of a time - without the Xbox. Heeheehee.
Something I found quite amusing. After everyone had a bath and was squeaky clean, the boys (big and small) decided to go crab hunting in the muddy tide pools. Sigh. Within minutes, my dirtiest son and his friend had mud from the butt down. Splattered on parts of the tee shirt, generously over the pants, legs...all the way down. Even the hands. Ah...the feel of mother earth. Fellow mud diggers included a couple of grown men armed with buckets & changkuls. Think they were looking for worms - the length of snakes. Eeewww.
