Ending with a christmas song before school dismissal.
Dinner that night was at our very hospitable rotary president's home again
Getting to know the blind massage personel
The center also has a free clinic with a healthy strength of doctors
our job there is to give the whole place a clean
& see how big their fruits are!
Our objectives includes student interaction and teaching english.
Greetings by our Host & Rotaract Medan President at the airport
And balloons come standard!
including the washing of their feets...
Day3, old folks home visit in the rural areas
encountering years of dust, lizard waste, dried urine, all packaged with a trademark smell...
The Tamil Temple Visit
more balloons!
followed by a visit to the medan wildlife museum before calling day 3 in close
A night to remember!
Getting used to Medan Traffic
a singing performance!
Merdeka walk
ending with a gift of appreciation to the president herself
their basic grooming are cared for
we had a rewarding meal at the end of the long day...
Hangman games with secondary classes
where we had karaoke and some partying with the elders
a memorable night!
Visit to the local wet market
And look what we found!
we play largely knowledge based english games like trival (wheel of fortune) & hangman
where the children have to guess & answers posed to them in english
A night at Merdeka Walk
With a free dialysis center
while the rest of us went about sweeping, wiping and mopping the premises
And do they love balloons...
The patients are all locked up in long houses, while the ones deemed normal are allowed to roam the area
some stories from the patients can be rather sad too
All board to Medan!
Day4, Visit to the Government Mental Hospital
There Dr wilson gave us a tour and practises the hospital has in treating and handling mental patients.
lunch was at Lisa's favorite Nasi Ayam Store
