Cameron Retreat 2011 (Day 2)

Woke up at 7:40 am, after some simple wash up, I got out of the house. Sitting in the cold breeze, doing my devotion, that's really cool. Breakfast is sandwich, it's a big family breakfast gathering =.= After that, we had a session where some of us share about their stuff (testimony, problems, challenges, encouragement).

The morning breeze and breakfast:

Before lunch, some of them helped the kitchen, another gang drove down town to buy ingredients for dinner. Few of us walked out the house for some exploring, and found this beautiful "hotel" with lots of flowers and a cafe beside it. Lots of pictures and treat ourselves with a banana boat ^_^ What a sweet holiday~

Banana boat explorer:

Lunch is served, thanks to Uncle Rodney's hard work on the preparation. Another big family gathering, but this time there're more kids to clear up the leftovers. After that, another chilling session until we go for visitations.

Spaghetti for lunch:

We're not going to butterfly farm this time. I sorta suggest the Time Tunnel (Entrance RM3), never been there before but it just caught my attention everytime I pass by that place. It's sorta a corridor of old stuffs, not many of us are old enough to see those but it's kinda surprising that we knew most of the stuffs.

Time tunnel:

Next stop is BOH tea farm. This time, we got the balcony seats in the cafe! Wow... after a long day up and down, finally I could sit there enjoying the wind and scenery like a retired man. For those first timers, I guess this is really an eye opener to them.

At BOH tea farm:

Back for dinner~ the preparation took longer than we expected (I'm helping the kitchen for vegie and egg). Over all, it's really a nice dinner together. Followed up by the second sharing session where we who didn't get to share this morning did ours, and then we're free to do anything.

Dinner and the strawberries:

That night, Sarah took note of my sharing, and with her own sharing topic, she compiled it into a lyrics. She says she always wanted to write a song with me, seems like it's a good time too. Then we worked together til 4 am, was so tired, trying to control our volume not to wake the others up.

"My father made your yoke heavy; I will make it even heavier. My father scourged you with whips; I will scourge you with scorpions.”
-1 Kings 12:14-

For all the things that we have shared, bless us and make us trust in Your ways. You hear our worries and sorrows, help us in our struggles. With all that I have, belongs to You, and let me hold on to this faith. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
