Bay-jing Olympics 2008

Last Friday (July4), our department had our yearly team bonding in Grand Villas Resort in Laguna. It was a whole day affair called the "Bay-ing Olympics". There were 10 groups named after a country. We played different sports like basketball, badminton, volleyball and swimming. The mechanics of the sports were changed from the traditional one. We are also able to do some obstacle course and a war game like in Takeshi's Castle. It was fun. The child in everyone of us showed up. There was also an awarding for the MVP, each sports and the best teams were awarded a trophy. It was just unfortunate that I was not able to join in the games because of my condition but glad that I was able to participate in the parade, dressing up our muse and coaching the team in the obstacle course. By the way, I was from the Group of Russia while Hubby was from Team Philippines. Some pix below:

Just want to comment on the place. It has the complete facilities for team activities. However, since there is a mini zoo in the place, there were lot of flies showing up during meal time. The food is not bad but seeing the flies everywhere will make you lose your appetite. It was so disgusting.

But overall, we enjoyed the day!
