Day6, the highland in the Morning

the stand-by us-ers with Lisa's Dad

the light rain didn't drench our BBQ one bit

our last night at one of the 'fast food' coffeeshops with more NasiAyam!

The day followed by a visit to the brastagi market

There, we tried the local steam/roasted corn delicacy

nice early morning walk

Peili presenting a token of appreciation to Lisa's Dad for the trip

The night was spent at the brastagi highland resort

The late night was spent at the jetty..

we couldn't stop taking pictures here...

where we had a overnight fellowship BBQ!

and there's gifts for everybody!

our flight back to Singapore

Thats all folks, the Rotaract Club 06 Medan Trip!

theres horses, not to mention loads of natural landmines everywhere

it's a free old folks home, run purely on donations

it's a hit with the kids, not to mention interactive, the one with the correct answer gets a balloon prize.

Still could not get enough of medan traffic, you need 6 eyes to drive here!

Titantic flying stance anyone?

sotong watching!

There we get to interact with the orphans/single parent (all very low income)

We were brought around the orphanage farms with vegatable farms, pigs and rabbits!

Day5, Bus trip...

They work, farm for a living and to keep the orphanage operations alive

don't you take my sotong balls! (repeat in indian accent)

before heading to the local supermarket to purchase our BBQ items for Day5

besides entertaining them in the common area

and there's cake for everyone!

For the secondary students

with spectacular scenery

it's tedious cleaning up a very run down place

Our task for the day is at the highland catholic orphanage

here, we make the balloons as prizes

and Ning's speciality chocolate fondue

and we even get to ride some back at the resort

it's almost like genting, foggy and cloudy but not too cold either
