PD Get-away '09

Hey everyone!!! CSS just got back from Port Dickson yesterday, and it was a blast! Of course, we had minor setbacks such as traffic jam on the highway and shortage of time to carry out our activities, nonetheless, the main objective of the camp to introduce CSS and how it is run to the members was reached. So, sit back, and read on the photo blog below. (Have a laugh or two at the photos too!)

Starting off, everyone gathered round to say an opening prayer...

Sue and Byron(and me too, but I was a little late...) co-ordinating the ice-breaking...
Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall...and Clare attempted to push him down...

Byron did well...Good Grace, Adorable Amanda, Prudent Paul, Tough Tomi, Bubbly Brigitte......
But he forgotten Sue's description!!!!!

Sweet Sue...

There were 18 of us in the camp on Saturday...

Everyone sitting around and having Keropok Lekor for tea time before heading off to the beach...
Warning! CSSUCSI have come, they saw...and they conquered the beach...

Dividing everyone into groups...there were 3; giraffes, goats and kangaroos...


A game of beach volleyball...

Grace, Catherine, Helen and Kingsley playing hopscotch with the locals...


Just like a star...(Amanda's, Joanne's and Joy's fingers...)

Bri ready to get onto the banana boat!

Paul, Joanne and Patricia...SAVE! *cough* There wasn't enough place on the banana boat for us....*wink*

Joy and Amanda. Amanda looks scared...

And they're off, to the Pineapple under the Sea...

The boat just started moving, and Amanda's screaming her lungs out!

While the remaining people built sand-castles...

Here they are on the banana boat...speeding through the waters...

AND DOWN THEY GO! *applause*

Group photo after the banana boat...

Group hug!

Another photo...

It was raining, and these 3(plus me) were the only ones who wanted to go back...
The others were contented of frolicking in the waters...
So what did we do?

We took photos!

Byron, showing off his culinary skills...
Boy, those sausage tasted good...

Nicholas, practising for the Praise & Worship...

An action song...Rebecca and Keasha in the photo...

After Praise&Worship, it was time to get onto your knees, literally...

Twister!

Patrick and ...(someone's) butt...

Kingsley and Patrick having a go at each other...there game lasted close to 30 minutes...each twisting their body absurdly, neither willing to give up...but King Kingsley shall triumph in the end...

Byron. Somersaulted and fell(hard) to the ground...

Team battle. In the end, MHEEEKKKK......THE GOATS WON!(I was a goat too...so can gLoat a little...)

Sunday morning. After aerobics and breakfast, we had a CSS Workshop...

Everyone had to come up with a plan of the flow of a CSS Gathering...

Gifts of the Holy Spirit...

Amanda's "Sharing" where everyone can place little notes into each others' envelopes...saying (hopefully) nice stuff about each other...

The envelopes, decorated nicely...

Tomi, inserting his notes into peoples' envelopes...

Then there was time for group photos....

And more group photos...

All the posers...

Byron again...posing like his brain is being taken out by Brigitte...

Last minute entries...

Clare opening her 'notes'....

SMILEY!

Some of us, sharing our notes...

Keasha, reading 'notes' about her....

Patricia, sharing about KLCC and the Lenten Donation...

And it was time to pack and go home... :(

But before that, there was still time to take photos...
