On Thursday we went out for Mongolian food at night--first experience for most people. We ate a lot!
Last night we went to this Greek restaurant across the street. My chicken was terrible, but the calamari pretty good!

Certificate Ceremony
The order of events here is wrong. Forgive me for that. We had a certificate ceremony on Wednesday.
All students said a few words.
They each received a certificate and a gift.

Abkhazi Garden
We went to this beautiful garden that was the home of Georgian Prince Nicholas Abkhazi and his wife Peggy Pemberton-Carter. They moved there in 1946. Jeff de Jong told us about how the couple met and about the whole garden. If you come to Victoria, please come enjoy this beautiful garden.
Georgie doing yoga.
Jeff de Jong inspiring us all.
Lawn Bowling for the very first time
My partner trying hard to learn how to lawn bowl. Our coach was excellent, but we lost to Sara and Arisa.
The champion! Look at how close she got to the jack. Yes, in this game the person who gets closest to the jack (the white ball) wins.
Busy Day: Arisa's birthday
We celebrated Arisa's birthday today. She just turned 19! Wow, it seems like I was that age 100 years ago....
