here are a few pictures from the temple trip I took the two Indian sisters on last week. It was a great trip!
The first photo shows Sister Nancy on the day she finally got her passport (she was made to wait for 10 hours at the passport office,they wouldn't let her leave), and knew that she could finally go to the temple! She had been saving all her money in this bank, and wanted us to have the honor of breaking it open. It was cool, and the kids loved helping us!
THe next one shows the great view of the table my cousin had reserved for our lunch. My cousin Jeanna lives in Hong Kong.
Next is her tiny kitchen... see the washer/dryer (same appliance does both)! I will never think of my kitchen at home as small ever again! SHe pays 2000 USD for a 500 sq. ft. apartment!
Next, Sisters Nancy and Sujata at the Hong Kong Harbor.
THen the laser light show where all the buildings light up and "move" to the music. Tacky, but cool.
Finally, the ladies at the temple. It was great. They were each able to get all their family names done, and Sister Nancy was able to do the work for her own mother. I saw some chinese names from 600 BC. The recorder said that he has seen them from 2000 BC.
It was a wonderful trip!
