Last day in Malaysia

Tim spent his last afternoon in Malaysia with BFA alumni. Back in 1985-86 Don was a student in Haus Bad Riedlingen, the dorm where Tim was an RA, and Melodee was a student in Storchenblick, the dorm where I was an RA. They are married with three children and living in Penang. Tim had a wonderful time catching up with them. Here's Karis, Kalista and Sean.

 Panoramic view of Dalat International School campus. I wish I could post them three in a row!

Malaysia some more.....

A few more pictures from Tim in Malaysia. Here is the team of boarding administrators that he met with. They come from 8 different boarding schools in Asia, Africa, and Europe. BFA was represented at the summit, and Tim really enjoyed connecting with them (Calvin and Scott).

Great food (as always) on these trips!

Sunset on the ocean, actually The Strait of Malacca, which connects the Pacific Ocean to the east with the Indian Ocean to the west.

Palmer Trail - Garden of the Gods

Beautiful day for an early morning hike on Palmer Trail in Garden of the Gods, which is only a 10 minute drive from our house! There are so many trails in that park waiting to be discovered. I found one of them today and the views were spectacular.

This rock formation is called Siamese Twins.

Happy robin on top of the world!

Rock climbers.

 

Dalat International School

Tim is currently leading a boarding summit at Dalat International School in Malaysia.
He writes....'Dalat has been around a very long time and was first located in Vietnam before the Vietnam war. The property here is only 7 acres and they have crammed 500 students on this tiny campus that's right on the beach. As you can see there are huge high rises all around this part of the island. It's a very good place and very nice for me to be here.'
The first few pictures were taken from his hotel which is right on the beach and right beside the school. Tim arrived in Malaysia late at night and awoke to this view the following morning!

Nathan is a graduate of BFA. He works in I.T. at Dalat.

A little tour......

Love this picture! The caption says "Master Bedroom". We found the print and frame at Michaels.

My $10 flea market find which I purchased years ago back in Germany for 18 Deutsch Marks. Tim finally found a spot to display it after years in storage.

Laundry closet on top floor beside bedrooms.

We live up on a hill and get a romantic view of Colorado Springs at night!
