Days 179 - 182

Hello lovely people. Back from our wonderful travels now and trying to  catch up. Suffering from some post travel blues today after such a wonderful experience and amazing family time. First post is the three days in Bangkok and the plane trip home, where miraculously all four children slept for 8 of the 9 hours.

Photo 1 - a raft made from bottle tops, a little stuffing, Liam's picture and a paper umbrella. For floating around in the pool on. Unfortunately it sunk, but luckily no one was harmed during the photographing of this craft.

Photo 2 - toothpick and bottle top spinning top. Difficult to photgraph but it worked and looked pretty good.

Pic 3 - toothpick fort. I was running out of materials and toothpicks were readily available. 

Pic 4 - The lovely staff at our hotel printed out the monkey for us and we made this monkey with bendable pipe cleaner arms on the way home. A little bit cute?

Day 178 - Pencil rubbings

Hi all! We are leaving Phuket today and back to the crazy of Bangkok. We have done some pencil rubbings with a few things we found around the hotel. 

Day 177 - Musical bottles with water.

Today we made music on our balcony with water coloured with a little bit of soft drink. It sounded great and looked quite awesome too. :)
