A Suzuki in the family

Sreymom, Sopheap and Bonna checking out the new machine.

At the risk of having a jealous Spider, we've expanded our fleet of motos - to two. Apart from my moto spending a tragic amount of time with a flat tyre (yep, got another today, but it had been two weeks ...) the amount of running around with patients and for stuff that is involved for the Healing Home makes transport a real juggle at times.

The little Suzuki Viva (specs: 110cc, 2006 model first rego in 2007; 22k) was hand picked for us by Pastor Mara, just the most caring, zealous guy who has pastoral oversight of the Healing Home - and an ability to suss out the dogs and lemons.

Our NZ friends Marty and Robyn initiated this through their homegroup. They arrive for three months with us at the end of July. May little Miss Suzuki be a blessing to them then, too!

Did I ever mention the time when our daughter, Kara, was visiting us? The first couple of days, she was very, very quiet on the back of my moto. Then, she came alive to the vibe of traffic flow here - and I would hear her going 'weeeee - weeeee' every time something exciting happened. Here is Sopheap going 'weeeee' on the inside around the Healing Home yard.
