One month down

My second cousins!

This past week has been more free time than work. With only four castings for the entire week I had plenty of time to spare. Unfortunately the rain that continued through most of the days was less than inspiring to go site seeing. Instead, this weeks focus shifted from daytime to night. Dragon I, Halo, Fly, and Volar all got visited and many meals and drinks were consumed.

But I realized that I've been here for a month now and have done barely any site seeing! I'm planning to change that soon, especially with the arrival of my sister and mom next week.

Tonight, instead of heading out with the usual crew, I had a dinner with my mom's cousin's family. They took me to a Thai restaurant called Soho Spice. Meeting new relatives was lovely and they were such friendly people that I'm sure I will be seeing them again soon. The two daughters (my second cousins?) are the same age as me and we got along really well but they leave tomorrow for a month in China so hopefully I will see them when they get back!

Speaking of China, my work visa came today and apparently to activate it I need to leave the country then come back. So unless I get an international job in the next two weeks, I have a little trip to make. I'm thinking a trip to Macau would be fun! Or going up into China could be interesting.
