Expat kids

You know your kids travel too much when you overhear them having earnest discussions about the strength of various currencies, and working out their pocket money in 2 different currencies, to see where they get the most.....

We have had the most unusual weather lately - rainy, cloudy days for 4 days in a row.  In the middle of this was Stephanie's birthday party, a swimming party, but the rain and cold (relative - 28deg) did not detract from the fun.  In fact, it added to the fun for the grown ups sitting at the side of the pool supervising, as we didn't die of heat exhaustion.  (I had previously been told by pool management to sit inside on a hot day when supervising the kids... how one can supervise while kids are not in direct sight and it would take you several minutes to reach them on the slight possibility you would see them in trouble....anyway....).
The point about the rain is that when it rains here, the kids all head outside directly.  Steph has a new teacher at school, fresh from the UK.  The first day it rained during break, she went out and called her very disgruntled class inside.  She has since learnt that expat kids go out when it rains and come in when it doesn't.....
