Hello all I added some more photos of the work we are doing.  The work on the roof is going well.  They finished removing the tiles from the tallest part of the roof.  You will also see the work they are doing in the new kitchen & dining area.
On Friday evening we went to a brothers home for dinner & karoke.  On Saturday we went to a fireworks competition between China, Canada & Korea.  It was a lot of fun, especially hearing the crowds reactions in unison.  You will see from the pictures how crowed it was.  We hope you enjoy them.  Kim & Bobby
