We Ate!
Hard Rock Cafe
Traditional Romanian meal fixed by Rosie.
Rosie is our mission treasure. She worked for years as a cook in the British Embassy. After she retired one of the past mission presidents discovered her and she comes out of retirement on occasion just to cook for the Mormons. We all love her.
We Played!
There was a rousing game of "Can You Pass the Spoons." First the men played.
Elder Patton and Elder Wahlquist playing.
Elder Patton and Elder Wahlquist grateful to be eliminated.
The Soras pass the spoons.
Three Elders and three Soras in first round of championship match. Soras Howells and Kitchen are the referees.
The men were quickly defeated (you can see them in the background complaining about some alleged cheating) and it was down to just me and Sora Wolsey. She won fair and square but I demand a rematch!
We sang!
"Ye Elders of Israel" has never sounded so good. When they got to the "O Babylon" part we all had goose bumps. There is some outstanding talent in this senior group.
We relaxed!
We visited Cismigiu Park where Elder Nelson dedicated the country of Romania to be opened for missionary work.
We were inspired!
Elder McFadden "inspired" us to get physical.
We heard many great and wonderful things from our President and Sora Hill.
The Romania/Moldova Senior Couples!
Outstanding!!!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you all had an excellent time. . . . I'm not surprised at all that you were in the final round of "Pass the Spoons." I don't know how this game is played, but I'm sure your years of Nerts and Speed Scrabble playing at all those reunions helped you develop excellent reflexes. :)
