Different Christmas

Went to church this morning - rainy Christmas.  Didn't mind it as the downpour came and went.  Decided to head to the pool with my niece.  Surprised to see a couple of other people at the club.  Drizzled as we swam - out of breath in a couple of laps.  The weather's nice but the humidity makes it hard to exercise.

Simple celebration with sister's family.  Definitely memorable..... satay for dinner amongst other local cuisines.  Being away from Vancouver definitely makes this holiday different.  Nice to not have to be involved in lots of activities but also missing home a little.

Gave me a chance to learn how to blog and upload some pictures.  A bit more time to think and reflect.
