and they are free to worship as they please? I know I sound ignorant on this but, I don't know how some of these other countries are when it comes to freedom of worship... I'd like to know...

before you can start a church you have to get permission from the State Government. You are not allowed to have any gathering larger than 8 people without permission. But overall they have freedom but not like here, they have no toleration for open dissent or that which would cause social disruption.

Keith, have you been to Hong Kong? I'm trying to get some ideas of where to go while we are there. We have three days there on our way back from the Philippines.

By the way, your pictures are great!! I didn't realize that your family was going with you.

Great pictures!

I would starve to death eating that food......just can't acquire a taste for Asian food.

So glad to hear of the good reports of your trip!

We had a short layover in Hong Kong, so we didn't see much beyond the Airport, but Jeanie kept telling me that we need to come back here.

Learned a lot about Jenny Miller and how many Pastors that she has baptized in Jesus Name.

There is quite a variety of food there, they have all the American food outlets, but we really wanted to eat the Local stuff, it was actually very good. Not as sweet as the stuff sold here. But still good.

My mouth was shocked with our very first meal there. It was 'chinese' food, but made by an Indian. So the spices they added gave it a HUGE kick! My mouth bbbuuuurrrnnnneeedddd!!!

Keith and Jeanie, did you guys get to eat in Little India with your hands?

And Jeanie, did you get a sari?

Awesome pics, Bro. Keith!!!! They bring back memories from my Asia trips. I really enjoy the culture and even the food. Not sure I'd want to live there.
