Repulse Bay

A day off on Monday meant an Island 1 Branch activity going to Repulse Bay.  Here are some of us waiting for the bus.

Days off, other than the one Sunday a week are rare so the sisters in the branch worked really hard making posters and food and fun activities for this event. They even came carrying big pots of chicken and big pots of rice and other food that they had to bring on the bus.



It was a beautiful day and everyone had fun with many different kinds of games.



To see the event, click here: Tug-of-War

Tug-of-War




Unfortunately, the tug-of-war has put Elder Chandler on crutches for a while, though.





There are great views all around the bay.






Well, a few of the younger ones survived the tug-of-war anyway and we had a "pretty" great day.

Actually, the tug-of-war eventually put Elder Chandler in the hospital for a couple of days for not so fun knee surgery for two nasty meniscus tears.


However, with a good repair by Doctor Lam, he's almost back to normal and almost walking normally again. Here he is waiting for the bus by the Golden Dragon statue.  This statue is supposed to be there for feng shui purposes that make people feel safe and happy.  It looks like it's working! We hope you have a safe and happy weekend!
