well it has been an eventful few days... Compeltely with very odd eating and all. Friday and Saturday we had traditional style banquets that we attended Friday's was the mother's choice diner and Saturday we attended a traditional baptism..Normally it consists of about a 10 to 12 course meal Fridays was a 12 course meal and Saturday was 10 and both days there was pleanty of seafood ( my favorite.... not) It was quite an experience though and now I can say I tried tons of things I"ve never tried before! including... Shark fin soup, Duck feet, some sort of fish that looks like a tounge and starts with an A. I enjoyed the company probably more than the food. ON saturday night we were seated with the Treats staff which is all of the people Don used to work with. They are great! Winnie is this great woman who is going to show us lots of stuff in Hong Kong and met us at the beach on Sunday. She's like really funny. Also on Saturday we learned to play Majong ( spelled that way wrong) anyways it's a game that supposedly prevents altzimers in elderly... It's like the card game set in the us but played with tiles so sort of like dominos and with chinese symbols instead of English. it's very fun. We also provided entertainment for many people while learning... I'd like to note... I won...( may not win at games in America when I play with my family but I'm bringing this one back and I will...)
In about 2 minutes we head out for our first day in the small group home.. A little nervous but mostly excited.. prayers are appreciated! Thanks
The weather is pretty cloudy and gloomy here but it can change in an instant we've noticed plus cloudy is good after the sunburn I got yesterday.... Welll better go get ready for camp!
peace
Tina
