Middle of Spring

It's back to school today for the kids. No more late nights and watching Bones and cartoons on youtube. Faris said he actually learnt a lot of new things from watching cartoon that they don't teach at school. He said amongst other things, he picked and learnt from Homer in 'The Simpsons' about nuclear energy. Homer Simpson works as a nuclear plant operator in the cartoon! Sounds obvious to adults but try to hammer that point in the classroom -don't think kids would be able to grasp that as easily.

We are now almost in the middle of Spring. The weather has been charming outside with colourful trees and green sceneries. Everything seems to come alive again. Migratory birds are back making the whole place noisy and sounds more tropical. The same with homo sapiens who are now more out and about, in short sleeves and crowding the cycle lanes. Roads are also getting prone to congestion as people are spending more time outside and travelling. We hope the weather will last a little bit longer as this is probably the best time of the year when it is not too hot and flowers are blooming.
