| Sunrise Peak - Keith, Pagna, Shawna |
One of the students from EYC, Pagna, is in the States attending college in Bridgewater, MA and over his Christmas break, he spent time with several families. He stayed for a weekend in TX with Keith's parents and then came to AZ, first staying with Jodi and Tim and then with us.
To hand over Pagna to us, we hosted Jodi, Tim, Ali (who was in town to visit with Pagna as well) and Pagna for dinner on Friday night. We had Mediterranean dishes - kebabs, couscous and roasted vegetables followed by ice cream for dessert. It was great to catch up with all of them.

| Golf Pros! |
On Saturday, we made breakfast at home - avocado toast - and then hiked
Sunrise Peak which took the usual two hours. It was a bit windy but sunny and beautiful and the trail was relatively empty. We then went back home to clean up and then had Pho for lunch at
Slanted Rice. Pagna was craving Asian food. In the afternoon, we played a couple of rounds at
Top Golf, teaching Pagna how to hit a golf ball by two people who know nothing about golf! Pagna did pretty well, coming close to beating Keith! We tried to go racing go karts but the wait was too long so we opted instead to go home and take a nap. That evening, we had Thai at
Soi 4 Bangkok Eatery - great restaurant with cool decor and food was very tasty! We then went to see
The Upside which was quite funny.

| Lost Dog Wash Trail |
On Sunday, we had breakfast at home again - this time our usual yogurt with berries. We then went for another hike,
Lost Dog Wash Trail which lasted about 1.5 hours. Back at the house, we cleaned up and then Keith took Pagna to the airport so he could fly to LA for a few days before returning back to school.
