Day 2352. I should have known that there was no point setting an alarm for this morning. Even though Sammy had only fallen asleep after 9:30 pm last night, he was the first one up this morning, some time after 6 am. And he was saying he was hungry. He and Randy made so much noise that Tammy finally woke up as well, and then Emmy.

Day 2351. I went to bed as late as usual last night and set my alarm for 9:45 am. However, the kids were up early and kept coming to me so I ended up getting up earlier than planned. It was time to finish packing everything and make sandwiches to eat on the train.

Day 2350. On Friday I'd had two students out of four cancel but one of them wanted to his lesson on Saturday morning, plus another student approached me for a lesson, so I had no choice but to get up "early" on Saturday instead of sleeping in as we didn't have anywhere to go for a change.
