Unfortunately, a bit of a saga without a very happy ending, though better to be safe. Rania, when she came back from IASAS Cultural Convention, left her passport in her pants pocket and it went through the washing machine.
She was scheduled to head out for IASAS exchange for softball, again in Manila (I think), and risking getting stranded with an invalid passport doesn't sound very exciting. In January, when Doug was getting his passport renewed, he heard a horror story about an ISKL parent who has two kids in middle school. He had an emergency passport because his passport has gone through the wash and ended up stranded in Singapore for 11 days, as the passport wasn't deemed valid when trying to re-enter Malaysia. Doesn't seem much worth risking. It also means that our March break plans - possibly diving in Thailand look like they may be on hold.
