take pee-cher! take pee-cher!!

Angora Brethren Chapel Church Camp 2006

Being a Christian in a Non-Christian World

Sofitel Palm Resort, JB

2-5 December 2006

on the bus across the causeway: at the midpoint between s'pore and m'sia. there. where the vertical cable support structure is.











sumptuous bak kut teh: near taman sentosa, along the stretch of shophouses where bamboo house is. one claypot isn't enough for the 2 of us. and the you tiao? oooh.. just sedap lah.

cost us about Rm15 each. what a steal.









secret recipe cakes: took away about 19 cakes in total for the cell group, my family.

a slice costs Rm5.50. think the same cakes in singapore costs S$5.50! another steal.

on the way back to city square: stole a shot of this really grumpy driver. don't think he was too pleased when we didn't want to pay his proposed fixed rate of Rm7 to City Square. He took us for lesser, nonetheless!

















towards sofitel: after 4 hours odd of scouring City Square for good deals, slippers & cakes, we took a Rm35 taxi ride to sofitel.

the driver commented that there's about only one way to sofitel, that's if you discount taking the NS highway. non wonder this shophouse and the red (is it red?) car looked familiar. i took the same shot last year on the same road when my family were headed to sofitel for the deacons' retreat.







another landmark: yep. this looks familiar too.


















porter!: this was in the evening after picking diana & christina from tuas (thanks, bee keong) and dinner at IOI complex.

just too many things to carry on 2 human bodies. thankfully, alvin took our bags in his car to m'sia for us. thank God for this trolley too.













R&R: the plan was to head to sofitel a day earlier than the entire church.. to rest and well.. relax. hence the shopping trips and the solid food you saw earlier.

snooker at the games centre with jeff on day 1 of the camp, before the bulk of the campers arrived.






kaya balls: at Rm2 for 10 of them, i thought it was yet another steal. they were average, at best.

not to mention that it took them about 10-15 minutes for them to prepare mine. poof.








structured games: found some time during structured games to play with the children.. must have been during the jigsaw puzzle game. don't really like those.

david and I: cute or what? david lah, i mean. hmm.. where's bryan?









astro boy: or at least that's what rachel thinks. i was the male with the longest hair in my group.. hence the 10 rubberbands in my hair. those hurt. seriously.











CRABS!: 2 black pepper & 2 chilli ones. And mantou to go along as well.

thanks to esther for offering to buy back.

in case you haven't realised, at Rm19 person, it was another steal. sheesh!

a sight that one only gets in m'sia, isn't it?

what was the answer found in our science textbooks to the question: if birds sit on the cables and lightning strikes the cables, do the birds die?














redloop-ed!: bought this on the way home at jusco tebrau city. Rm329, which is about S$140. jeffrey checked out this range in s'pore the night before we left.. it was about S$199.50!

moreover, the salesgirl said this particular one costs slightly more than the usual Rm265 cos' of the material, which i really thought was different than the rest.

another steal or what.

chicken cordon bleu: the last one before the trip back to s'pore. chicken with cheese oozing out and fries.. deadly combo.

this was just too good to resist. seriously, try it (in m'sia). Rm14.50.

whoohoo!!
