Ivo and Burl All Day All Night

Busy day today and I'm typing sideways over nursing Burl so it's gonna be mostly pics.

Ivo is learning how to somersault which he calls "circlesault." He also calls the rocking horse "seahorse" cuz he's conflating see-saw and rocking horse. Cute.



Pics of Ivo and Burl with Karin, Alison and Tessa at *bux yesterday. Burl has been rocking the Chicken Littles!




















Pics of Ivo and Burl at Dylan's today with Baby Maya and Heather. The grounds of their building boasts a playground, swimming pool (not pictured), orchid garden and dozens of white plaster Greek style nudes. CLASSY. This sort of private public art is a favorite in Taiwan.





























Pics of Ivo and Burl at the dentist's office play room today. They had a great time there. I'm adding it to the list of free places with a/c to take the kids to play!

April's Vanity Fair is so good!!!!!!!! In addition to reminding us that the whole "torch relay was first cooked up by Nazi propagandists under Joseph Goebbels in preparation for the 1936 Olympics in Berlin," William Langewirsche's article on the upcoming Beijing Olympics asserts that a coming Chinese century is doubtful because "no one turns to China to learn about anything but China itself" and "as wages and production costs rise, and China loses its special appeal to manufacturers, the lack of invention is going to sideline this country. The paradox facing China’s leaders is that they cannot encourage the fix without as a result being removed from power."
