A day at the races...

We spent a day at the local "hippodrome" / race track where we were fortunate enough to see a wide variety to traditional horse races and games - including "oolock". This is a game very much like rugby...but played on horses...with a goat carcass. It was intense! Here are some pictures from that day....
(Great thanks to our lovely Scottish pal Colin Spurway for the awesome photos!)

Happy 4th of July!

We attended a 4th of July bash at the U.S. Embassy - complete with bbq'd hamburgers and a band. It was a little taste of home...here we are with our good friend Cameron...also a Pac NW native.

Nachos! So delicious....

I am trying to fatten Theo up! He has lost 45 pounds...back to his high school weight!
