Fire! Earthquake! Help!

Today I got to spend the day with my host family. It seems so long since I've seen them. They are always busy (me too) and we just never seem to be free the same weekends.

Anyway, today we finally sorted it out and went to their elementary school for a whole day of emergency madness. The fire engines, paramedics, extiguishers, cranes and even an earthquake simulator were on hand to ensure the day was one big ride!

The great thing about today was seeing the whole family again. I stayed with them just over two years ago and the girls have grown up so much. The oldest now speaks amazing English and is looking into her university options. Even the youngest has grown up so much ans is nearly as tall as her mum - where does the time go?
