Back to the thick of things again. It's been a week since we were back in Holland. Every body are back to their routines - the kids taking their daily train to school and me cycling to work - that's 19km everyday. In fact nothing really changed even though it is the fasting month. The kids refused to skip their PE lessons, which sometimes run for 3 periods, and just braving through with empty stomach. The current cool weather does help. My bicycle rides are now a bit slower, taking 50 minutes each way. Work finish just before 6 pm, enough time to cycle back and have the iftar which is now just after 8 pm in the evenings.There's no gerai ramadan to go here, unlike back home where there seems to be sungkai offer everywhere - that we envy! The only respite here are the few Turkish and Moroccan food outlets in town.
