Majulah, Singapura!

It is amazing that we have already been away from Singapore for a week. It has taken that long to get our days to nights and nights to days, recover from the crazy trip home, and get back into our regular routine. All that being said, we have definitely spent a lot of time reflecting, telling stories, laughing and getting some teary eyes about our experiences.

I decided to create a video of all that we did! It is 23 minutes of fun, so sit back and enjoy.

I am so proud of the adventures we had, but even more grateful for the enrichment that Dave and Jen are giving their kids.  Although they miss American soil and conveniences of home, they have done an amazing job learning the culture, cultivating their own Singaporean pride and raising three children who can adapt to pretty much anything. Their community at Ardmore Park is welcoming and their friends so kind. I appreciated the hospitality from their friends and was continually impressed with the experiences that they will all hold near and dear, even as they all eventually will part ways to new locations.

Since we have been home, so many people have asked us each what our favorite parts of the trip were. It is nearly impossible to even begin to rank all that we did.  Bottom line, both David and Sarah list their favorite part of the trip as spending time with their Uncle Dave, Chocie Jen, Lulu, Dan and Allison. Although we traveled to the other side of the world (literally), it made me so happy to know that my kids have an appreciation for family. They know that the bonds they have with Team Go are one of a kind and life long, and for that, I will always be grateful.

Majulah, Singapura!
