Picnic at Magic Island!

The highlight of the day was going to Magic Island for the KCC beach party. This picnic was supposed to have taken place last month, but it had to be postponed to today because of bad weather. Priscilla and I arrived at the "island" at around 12:00pm with some food to share with everyone else.

As it turned out, most of the people were Japanese, because this was an event for international students. We didn't know most of them, but got along pretty well. Everyone brought food, so we had a buffet style lunch.

It took about an hour to set up the volleyball net because no one knew how to do it! :S We finally got it up, though, and started playing. Since I was not used to the hard, real volleyball, I was awful at it. On the other hand, some of the guys were really good!

Being with lots of Japanese people was really fun! Later in the afternoon, Klunx and Marie (from our theatre class) came to join us, so suddenly the whole place became a lot crazier! LOL




This is Magic Island's beach.. it's not the cleanest of beaches, but it is a popular place for water baptisms and weddings (we saw both today).


After 4:00pm, we were picked up by Erin and finally got home. It was fun but tiring... also, we got a nice tan (and a little sunburn) during volleyball. I still need more tan though, especially on my legs.


After dinner, we watched half of the movie Moonstone, which is supposedly the first mystery novel to ever be written. I hope we can finish it tomorrow! :D


For tomorrow's Sunday service, we are going to go to the New Hope church.. it will be the first time for me to go there, so I'm looking forward to it!
