Family Home Evening group celebrating John's birthday. Bruce made apple pie.
This is Central Market where we buy souvenirs!!
This sign says 'welcome'. Bruce and I went to a young single adult conference. We were chaperones with another couple. There were 38 single adults. We gave a workshop on family history but had no internet so it wasn't completely successful. Bruce gave the closing remarks. We were judges for the skits and got a durian for our efforts. If you saw 'where in the world is Matt Laurer' that is the stinky fruit.
Water activity. This place was not so hot. This is the clearest water I have seen here.
Pres. Woo holding Dennis so the people could hit him with water balloons. They missed every time.

This was our assigned cabin. It is very cute but FULL of ants. After spraying, sweeping, mopping (by the staff) they gave us a different room.
This is the cabin we got changed to. Not as cute.
Bruce's study group.
This is my study group.
The monkey stole his watch. He is trying to get it back. He didn't. The monkey destroyed it.
This is a rubber tree. They harvest the rubber early in the morning, about 4:00 a.m.
Palm oil tree. The red is the seeds.
This is the seed from the palm oil tree.
Bridge going to the fish hatchery.
Pathway at the fish hatchery.
This means 'see you later'.

The Ho sisters treated us to a hotel stay in Melaka. The Portuguese settlement is celebrating 500 years of being there. We did tourist things on Saturday. On Sunday we went to church and did handbook training.
This is a mango tree.
This is a famous church. There are a lot of shops selling souvenir type stuff.
Friendrich bought a potato on a stick. It tasted like a baked potato.
