Retreat Pics
Here's some pics of the Leavenworth retreat. I might write up a more detailed description later if I fail to get a Wii tonight 🙂

There was a lot of snow on the bus ride up

The lodge

Unpacking

You got a cot if you failed in the scramble for beds

The power went off for the first night, which was lots of fun, especially when we discovered that the toilets and showers were on a water pump, which was also off

No Fishin'

Rope traversal across a "chasm" of wet horse poo

Getting lost on the compass & map activity (I'm in the back)

Class activities

On the bus ride back we learned a bit of Mandarin Chinese. When we learned numbers there was an argument about whether we should learn 1-10 or 0-9. Can you tell we are programmers? 😉
