All
Lisa's granddad showing the rotary stand and bells
it's tedious cleaning up a very run down place
with spectacular scenery
For the secondary students
and there's cake for everyone!
besides entertaining them in the common area
before heading to the local supermarket to purchase our BBQ items for Day5
We were brought around the orphanage farms with vegatable farms, pigs and rabbits!
Titantic flying stance anyone?
sotong watching!
Day5, Bus trip...
don't you take my sotong balls! (repeat in indian accent)
They work, farm for a living and to keep the orphanage operations alive
SBS Transit Volvo B9TL Rear Right
There we get to interact with the orphans/single parent (all very low income)
Still could not get enough of medan traffic, you need 6 eyes to drive here!
it's a hit with the kids, not to mention interactive, the one with the correct answer gets a balloon prize.
it's a free old folks home, run purely on donations
theres horses, not to mention loads of natural landmines everywhere
and there's gifts for everybody!
our flight back to Singapore
Thats all folks, the Rotaract Club 06 Medan Trip!
where we had a overnight fellowship BBQ!
there Charcoal and Diesel grills!!
The late night was spent at the jetty..
we couldn't stop taking pictures here...
The night was spent at the brastagi highland resort
nice early morning walk
Peili presenting a token of appreciation to Lisa's Dad for the trip
There, we tried the local steam/roasted corn delicacy
The day followed by a visit to the brastagi market
Day6, the highland in the Morning
our last night at one of the 'fast food' coffeeshops with more NasiAyam!
the light rain didn't drench our BBQ one bit
the stand-by us-ers with Lisa's Dad
we celebrated Ann's early birthday with an opening by the rotary president
The kids are a happy bunch
it's farewell at the airport after our last fellowship dinner with the hosts
tide's still low
1 hr into the journey & we can still see the islands
we slowly migrated to the starboard on the later part of the return journey
group picture with the SGrunners
the camera is not good catching things underwater thou...esp at night
what else to keep us occupied on a 4hr boat trip..
2nd-ers!
my camera ain't very good at night, neither being able to catch the spectacular night star formations.
& its heck it's one of the biggest in the area too
till Uncle George came with his Uber pistol grip diving light!
A trip to enjoy, a holiday experience to remember..
& on our way back to Mersing!
