Well, hello everyone again. Karen let me have a go at updating this thing again, so lets see what happened that is worth mentioning on our blog.
On Wednesday we drove to a town about 4 hours away. I can't remember what the town is called, - Karen just informed me it is Kaffa (sp?), but we went to visit Ed's brother and his family. On the way we stopped and looked at a few crocodiles and a few caves. We visited with his family for the night and the next morning. They have 6 girls, very nice family. Anyway, that morning we toured around the town and of course, went and visited the local market - a must on any visit. And then we spent the rest of the day driving home.
We also realized that Amy VZ is pretty famous here in Indonesia. Everywhere we go we see pictures of her, and everyone asks if we know Amy. And of course I become famous because i get to say that i went to the same school as her growing up, and lived in the same community (although that would be the only time i would admit that Elora and Fergus are the same community, because we all know that Elora is much superior). Anyway, Amy - you have quite the following here.
I was supposed to do a talk at a church in Kupong last night, when we got back, but it was raining in the city, and when it rains, things shut down. So it was cancelled, which was too bad. Anyway, instead last night we played ping-pong and Risk.
And today is thursday. Our last full day here. Ed had to go into the city to do some work so we tagged along to visit the bank and to get on the internet. When we get back home we have to finish the playground, which will probably take the rest of the day. And tonight we have a big soccer game planned with members of the church versus a bunch of youth from the community. It should be fun.
And tomorrow we fly out for Bali, and then we are off to Hong-Kong on Saturday. And then we should be home on Tuesday night, D.V.
Well, all the best to everyone. May the joy of the LORD be your strength for this day!
Randy (and Karen)

Hey Randy & Karen
I hope you still left the Indonesians with a positive impression us?hehehe!
They are such amazing people I think it is impossible to not miss them.
Just wait Randy?fame comes there when you are gone?so you?ll be famous too, plus they probably requested your photo too. They don?t want to ever be forgotten and I am sure they will never forget all us Canadian visitors.
I thought I should correct your blog update?you mistakenly said the Elora is better then Fergus but of course we all know that Fergus is much better ;)
So did you get the honors of being treated into eating dog meat in Kefa too?
Did you enjoy your washroom facilities? Nice showers hey!?!
I can?t wait to see your pictures.
All the best during your flights home!
