Getting prepared for Marco

A big mess after removing the bed & bedhead from the wall of our second guest room and preparing everything for our painting session.
Niki's mobile is already hanging :-)

The first stroke of baby blue...

And the last stroke (of the first wall) :-)

Meanwhile, we had already put together the furniture.
Such a difference!

(we also have a changing table to place onto the above cabinet)

Some of the other things we have already prepared, like the buggy...

...some clothes (thank you Stephan, Niki, Mami, Papi, Paul & Caroline and Takka and Yuli!)...

... and a moses basket where he will sleep at the beginning...

Now we just need to wait!

Christmas in Phuket with Caroline & Paul

Our villa in Phuket - Prima Villa on Karon Beach
Karon Beach


The Christmas BBQ at our villa on 24th December






Opening the presents



Next day, 25th December, we went to the beach after a big breakfast
... and had a dinner at a simple Thai restaurant nearby

On the 26th, we visited Phi Phi Island (where "The Beach" was filmed)






In the evening, we walked along Karon Beach, had some drinks and had dinner at "On the Rock" seafood restaurant, overlooking the sea


Sadly, Caroline and Paul had to leave early on the 27th, while we enjoyed our last day at the beach and at the pool
