School's carnival - kermess

June is a busy month. It's the end of the school year and so lots of events. Firstly, there's farewell for ppl who are leaving Clermont, then there's lot of school events like carnival, outings, and shows (spectacle).

The theme for this year is dance so all the classes in school are putting up a dance show. Matthew's class did an African dance... and here's a video clip on it if you can spot him!

Family's visit

May is a month full of vacation and holidays! We just came back from a 2 weeks tour when my family came. We had a great time together even though it was tiring. We managed to cover 5 countries in just 2 weeks - France, Italy, Switzerland, Austria and Germany. It was very good... My sisters had a great time... it's their first time in Europe and it's a long journey here! The trip was way too tired for my mum but she enjoyed spending times with Matthew... same go for my sisters!

I couldn't thank DH enough to have the trips so well-planned despite his busy travels and schedule. He had the itinerary planned and the hotels booked and of cos he was the one who drove us around... He's such a wonderful hubby, isn't he?

Here's are some places we had been:

Mont St-Michel(France)







Chateau de la Loire(France):








Geneva (Switzerland):









Yvoire(France):







Venice(Italy):











Innsbruck (Austria):





Schloss Neuschwanstein (Germany):



Zurich, Luzern and Rhinefall (Switzerland):









Jungfrau-Top of Europe (Switzerland):












Too many good photos to show... I will have to do a slide on these!
