Happy New Year!!! What's everyone up to?

Kung Hei Fat Choy! This is the most low key Chinese new year ever as the elder of our two little monsters started school last week. No holidays in Oz. I'm still trying to get used to the school routine. It doesn't help when there's a major cyclone up north threatening all those up north. Hope the weather will be kinder to Queensland the rest of the summer/year.

I was trying to get some fake firecrackers to decorate the house but the shop was out of them. Will just have to stick empty red packets everywhere for a bit of atmosphere. May be a takeaway Chinese meal in the evening.

Takeaway Chinese sounds good.

It's a worry about Queensland isn't it. I have relatives somewhere near Cairns - hoping they are okay.

We are battening down the hatches here in Penang and avoiding the traffic jams for a few days.

Had a good "Hot Pot" session on New Years Eve here in Dubai! No home fireworks display though!!

I was in Hunan with my girlfriend visiting family everyday and going crazy from the constant boozing and eating...not bad but after three weeks I need a break a bit of personal space again haha.
