Ben's sister created this lovely gingerbread house, with the help of her chillins at Christmas. It's a good thing we got the picture, because the next day, the red from the peppermints had begun to run, covering the door with red juice (I said it made a good Passover door), and the frosting began to sag till it looked like ice cycles. By day two, the wreath above the door lost it's circular shape and by day three, the candies on the trees had oozed their color completely. It made for good snacking, but the heat and humidity of Palawan took their toll.
We all went for a walk to the beach and met our neighbor's pet monkey. The kids loved her. She was scared to death...
And Ellie spent some with her cousin, looking out, fighting, playing, fighting. you get the idea...
