My reasoning is that in order for us to understand the culture of the country we must try to communicate in the local language and eat the local foods.
So, due to Ramadan each evening after 7pm we join the crowds in the street of our local neighbourhood and enjoy the local cuisines. We have discovered an absolute plethora of delicious, albeit spicy foods. Surprisingly the boys have made this transition relatively pain free. Or so I thought.
There are many lessons a mother must teach her children to prepare for life. At 4am this morning one of my sons learned one of these lessons. Never force flatulence in Asia!
