Monkey-B is now on the cusp of learning how to ride her bicycle, although today I realized we needed to have a talk about brakes.
Go Monkey Go 👏
I didn't catch the moment on camera that I saw Monkey-B make two revolutions with the pedals before losing control, but when I witnessed this achievement, I immediately knew that she'll be riding within a matter of days.
I couldn't resist turning some of these cycling outtakes into GIFs. This is such a basic joy, but for three years stranded in Suriname we were merely surviving, living only to secure the next meal. The circumstances certainly caused me to miss out on sharing these little moments of ordinary life with my daughter.
At 8 years old she's definitely late to the cycling world, and I have already seen some locals puzzled as to why a child so old hasn't yet learned how to ride a bike yet. When we left Cambodia 3 or 4 years ago she was riding a tiny bike with donut-sized tires and training wheels.
Other Ways To Keep Moving 🏸
When not honing cycling skills with Monkey-B, I can often be found playing badminton with Srey-Yuu, a sport I used to love very much, so I hope we can eventually find a net somewhere. With a net I could teach her how to play the sport properly and keep score, etc.
That's all from Pramaoy, Cambodia, my fellow ASEAN Hivers. I hope to share with you very soon footage of Monkey-B popping wheelies and doing backflips into the foam pit, but for now we gotta brush up on the basics like steering and braking.
