Field Day!

We've been very busy at work over the last few months -- not just the two of us, but everyone who works with us. So our bosses decided we needed to blow off some steam ... with a Field Day.


We were divided into four color-coded teams -- Orange, Green, Purple and Blue -- and set off on a series of games. Who would have thought that all of those 6th grade skills would be useful in the corps diplomatique? Of course, there were prizes to be had, so competition was fierce.



Team Blue won the day at the games after a nail-biting finish. It came down to a tie between Team Blue and Team Purple. In the end the winner was decided by hula-hoop ... and Dr. Apichai's skills were superior those of Patrick's boss, Tom.




Sadly, we failed to win the prize we really wanted: Best Team Spirit. That went to Team Green. Apparently choreographed singalongs were more impressive (or less frightening) than our strategy, which can best be described as All-Out Mayhem.


A grand time was had by all!
