Conference weekend and "Boy's Camp' in the Patron Housing

The first weekend in April is always General Conference, when we pause to listen to speakers from Salt Lake.  Because of the time difference the conference will be re-broadcast next weekend in the buildings here.  We were able to get up early, 4 am,and watch the sessions streaming on the internet.  It was fun to gather with our family, remotely, and listen all together.  Our Prophet, Thomas S. Monson looked well, though he didn't speak long.  We liked to hear everyone taught about the importance of Temple work, there are now 150 working Temples around the world.

We have a 5 am session in the Temple on the first Tuesday each month.  So we were up early, again.  Some of the Temple workers got together and stayed in Temple housing on Monday night.  The public transportation makes it difficult for them to get to the Temple so early.  We had families and single older workers, all together for FHE.  They played a bible trivia game, too hard a set of questions for me.  Then we ate together, Fijian food with an excellent stew, taro, and rice.  We had noodle salad, taro greens salad and ice cream.  Cindy made a triple batch of brownies to share.
