All week we were planning on getting a whole goat to cook up on the roof of our flat. I was collecting money 100 HKD from each person and last night Khem and I were going to go get it and bring it back. However, after Chinese New Year the slaughterhouse was out of them I guess so we tried to make other plans. It's frustrating, we had at least 15 confirm to come and I had collected money from almost half. Oh well, next time
Last night we were trying to get together a plan for acquiring some momos and fresh chicken. Again this plan fell through, Khem is working today, but everyone else is off, so there is no one to buy any of the stuff for us. We'll have to do it after everyone gets off work tomorrow, it should be fine. We only have a half day tomorrow, I'm hoping Khem can get the food and stuff without any help because no one will be able to go into Jordan to get any of the Nepalese food and help him bring it back.

Camp over now time to sleep...
Kids left today after one of the better camps I've done, kids were good, teachers were great, we had tons of support staff and a coordinator that could actually coordinate and not have to lead a group at the same time. We played a bunch of music in Mui Wo last night. I haven't been posting much through Posterous lately, i've pretty much been just going direct from twitter or blogger for updates, I still like Posterous, but i think i'll mostly use it for travel updates and updates from my iphone.

Getting Busier
Last week we had a corporate group in for teambuilding, then I ended the week supporting a camp of 60 kids in beach games and BBQ stuff.
Yesterday was the 2nd annual Lantau Buffalo Association 5K Beer Run, we fielded a team. Six of us dressed up in.jpg)
yellow PFDs and orange climbing helmets with matching shirts and shorts and then added two mega phones for extra awesomeness. Everyone in the race definitely knew when we were coming and going from each station :)
We actually won a prize for something...none of us have the clearest recollection of why they handed us an envelope with 500 HKD in it but we weren't complaining. We guess it was for best dressed team, best team spirit, or best chant, there might be photos coming, we didn't take any but the organizers might be sending some out.
Today we just prepped for the school coming in for 4 days and 3 nights, I'm also moving more stuff over to the flat. I've worked out a deal, because there isn't enough room for the current staff, where I basically get paid to not sleep in my bed at the staff flat and instead stay at the other flat. Irvin is coming with the van to help move things soon.
I'm half way through the month now, but there are still 3 weeks of camps left. Time is ticking down now though
