Dad is back home!

After going to Singapore and making a stop in Japan, dad is finally home.  Can't believe how strong my dad is mentally and physically and spiritually.  This man is almost 60 but he's doing all these business trips.  I am always so thankful to him and God.
My dad....he always brings us something back.  Ever since I could remember, he ALWAYS brought back gifts and it always felt so exciting and special--that he was thinking of us and wanted to bring a piece of his experience to us.  I recall...beautifully illustrated Serendipity books from Europe, Mongolian toy horse made out of Mongolian horse hair, Russian dolls and eggs, cute Korean hair pins, fancy watches (I have at least 6), exclusive Japanese camera cases, to little trinkets and souvenirs. 
This time he brought Japanese crackers and cookies.  We love their packaging so much that the gift is 50% the thrill of unwrapping it and 50% actual gift.  It's literally a work of art!
Ps. Singaporean money is crazy!  Feels like plastic!
