BBQ and the Beach


On Friday, at night time the church and I went to the Hong Kong Police College where we had a BBQ. The church knows one of the professors/captains so they let us use there BBQ area and grassy football field. It was a lot of fun playing football with everyone and cooking meat over the open flames. It took a long time to cook the meat but it just added to the social aspect of it. I was told that this was a very HK type BBQ. We each had our own metal sticks to use to hold our meat of bread or spring rolls over the fire.

Playing football, I got so sweaty. It was a really good workout for me. Football is not my best sport but I had a good time and did a great job anyway. Afterwards, we took the bus back home.

On Saturday, I got to sleep in for a little bit and then later met up with about 30 of the youth from the church. We went to very nice beach and played games. I wanted to go in the water but ended up not going because we were playing games the whole time. Some guys who just chillin on the beach were tossing disc so I joined in with them. But I showed them my disc and they thought it was much better so we used my disc to toss. They asked where I got it and I told them America. It can be hard to find a good frisbee.

It was fun being the nice beach. It looked like something out of movie or magazine. The weather was so hot but luckily the clouds came out for little bit to protect my white skin from being chard. Most of the games we played involved water guns and water balloons. The hotels and apartments nearby looked really high class. I'm sure it is an expensive place. And out in the water I could see a couple of really nice yachts.

Now tonight we have a youth group and then later I'm going to meet up with some guys to play basketball. The days go by so fast here. Always busy...
