The kids are a happy bunch
we celebrated Ann's early birthday with an opening by the rotary president
it's farewell at the airport after our last fellowship dinner with the hosts
There, we tried the local steam/roasted corn delicacy
our last night at one of the 'fast food' coffeeshops with more NasiAyam!
the stand-by us-ers with Lisa's Dad
the light rain didn't drench our BBQ one bit
The night was spent at the brastagi highland resort
Day6, the highland in the Morning
where we had a overnight fellowship BBQ!
The day followed by a visit to the brastagi market
nice early morning walk
our flight back to Singapore
we couldn't stop taking pictures here...
there Charcoal and Diesel grills!!
and there's gifts for everybody!
Peili presenting a token of appreciation to Lisa's Dad for the trip
Day5, Bus trip...
They work, farm for a living and to keep the orphanage operations alive
There we get to interact with the orphans/single parent (all very low income)
and there's cake for everyone!
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!
with spectacular scenery
Our task for the day is at the highland catholic orphanage
don't you take my sotong balls! (repeat in indian accent)
Thats all folks, the Rotaract Club 06 Medan Trip!
a farewell shot before leaving the highlands
and Ning's speciality chocolate fondue
it's almost like genting, foggy and cloudy but not too cold either
theres horses, not to mention loads of natural landmines everywhere
and we even get to ride some back at the resort
it's a free old folks home, run purely on donations
The pastor of the orphanage
Day5, Bus trip up to Brastagi Highlands
including the elders themselves!
Still could not get enough of medan traffic, you need 6 eyes to drive here!
it's tedious cleaning up a very run down place
all board!
Dinner that night was at our very hospitable rotary president's home again
it's a hit with the kids, not to mention interactive, the one with the correct answer gets a balloon prize.
besides entertaining them in the common area
Lisa's granddad showing the rotary stand and bells
up to Brastagi Highlands!
For the secondary students
Dinner that night was at the rotary president residence
Here we are at the school
& see how big their fruits are!
here, we make the balloons as prizes
but the rewards at the end are priceless...
