View fullsize Pretty sure the exercise is: Mum pours water on Arlo's head! View fullsize Still have to work on our back float. View fullsize Saturday morning road trip! View fullsize Everyone in? We're off to Trat! View fullsize Lucky Arlo! His Aa Top has some really awesome presents for him! View fullsize Aa Top can't open the box fast enough. View fullsize Hug for his Yaa. Almost the same size!? View fullsize What entertainment: a digger, a bulldozer, a dump truck, and a yard full of gravel! View fullsize Creeping up on his Pu while he naps. View fullsize Indeed, Arlo can spend the whole afternoon digging! View fullsize Look, more gravel! View fullsize Spinning the twirly cans. Uh-oh! Arlo is too heavy for Yaa to pick up now! View fullsize Helping to water the plants. View fullsize And vroom-vroom! Trying his hand at driving Pu's tuk tuk. View fullsize Wait, where did Dad go? View fullsize Arlo's not quite sure what the order of operations is. View fullsize Well, he got the lights on! View fullsize Coloring and drinking bedtime milk: what a multi-tasker.

View fullsize Watching studiously as Yaa hacks open the coconut. View fullsize Cheese! View fullsize Laughing about the coconut water. View fullsize That's pretty funny! You want Arlo to drink it himself? View fullsize Here, it's better that Yaa helps. View fullsize Entertaining himself. View fullsize The fish are very colorful this visit. View fullsize Getting in close to take a good look. View fullsize It's not possible to count the fish! View fullsize Time to actually go for a ride! View fullsize Just a short ride though.

View fullsize A portrait with Yaa before leaving... View fullsize ...and one with Pu... View fullsize ... and one with Aa Top! View fullsize All three generations!
