Prelude To The Summer

Click here to listen to "Hey Jude" performed by Salt Lake Artist Choir

Jeah! This is the most relaxing summer break! I needed not to rush packing the luggage to fly. Last summer, I flew the next day to Ecuador the day after the school has ended. This summer is different. I got to really slow down before flying to Israel on June 21 then to Mongolia on July 1. It's a good break! Meanwhile, the household stuffs, workout, and swimming occupy my time...not to forget the most awaited daily "power nap." I could not squeeze a long power nap during school days --- on the average 15 minute-power nap in my car once I parked at the Spa Fitness Centers on work days right after work. Now, hey Jude, it's heaven!

It's not Summer season yet. We are still in the last stretch of Spring. Summer starts June 21, the day I fly to Tel Aviv, Israel.

In this entry, I included some photos recently taken at the beginning of my summer break on June 4 ....

Starts here......

Ready for the summer! Jeah!

Now it's vacation...more time is available to prepare creative, healthy meal, of course! Vacation means ... staying healthy and not gaining weight! Jeah
