Here we all are, well most of us... as you can see there are some up on the second level windows. Now, starting from the back row, from left to right, we have -- just kidding, that would take forever. But you can see Peter Moore on the back row, second in from the left. I blend in fairly well with the children in the front row. (For mom and dad and Scott: Chi Mei is three to the left and back one from my position).
None else but the conference photographer, Jonathan, with his "vintage" Olympus, from 2005.
The traditional fellowship meal at Dr. and Mrs. Wee's house Friday night after the meetings - what a spread!
Thursday night, as the visitors from Malaysia arrive, we had a "BBQ at the hall for all."
Here we have Eddie, the "master skewer bbq'er"; why they don't use propane for bbqing I have no idea - using charcoal is about 5X as time consuming and about 5X as messy.
I'm very greatful for Deborah and Joshua who came by the hall to help begin the BBQing at about 7pm.
On Friday and Saturday mornings (before the conference meetings began), a few of us that were staying at the hall went down to the East Coast Beach for a morning swim and food. Below, we have Meng Chong getting in some practice for the 400m dash.
Meng Chong and Kit-Kat (as I call him), at the east coast. On a side note, Meng Chong and I were responsible for maintaining order among the young believers from Malaysia who were staying at the hall - in preparation, I purchased a whistle and a flashlight, but did not need to use them; the young people (7 or 8 in total) were very well behaved according to Canadian standards.
New friends from Malaysia; from left to right: Kit-kat, Ah Liang, and Song Yee (whom I call Jay-choo or Jayden). This is the group of guys that bunked with us in the basement of the hall. Here we are enjoying Milo Dinosaur. Hilarious and fun group to be around I will say...
Song Yee and Meng Chong enjoying Milo Dino and the famous Redondo sticks on Saturday night.
Simeon and his wife Carmen - known by our good friends Shad and Debbie Kember and family. Simeon and Carmen were at Sunny Slope Gospel Hall in Arizona for some time I believe.
