LUNCH WITH CHRISTINE, TIMOTHY & CO.

This month of November seems to be super peak season for visitors to GC. Malaysian/ Singaporean stampede into town! So far, have touched base with ..lemme see, about 4 families/friends from Malaysia & Singapore in November itself. One more family on the way tomorrow too...enjoying the company so far & opportunity to catch up with friends & family...
Yesterday, we drove up to Brisbane and had good fellowship catching up with Timothy, Christine, their daughter, Charissa, their nephew Ginson, and his friend, Suzanne.
We lost our way twice in the city but after circling round Chinatown, unexpectedly landed at our intended destination, the resort hotel where Christine & Timothy were staying in called The Point. Well.. the point was that we finally got to the Point, so that was what mattered, get the point?
For lunch, we indulged in delicious northern Indian cuisine at this quiet neighbourhood in Brisbane tucked away somewhere near University of Queensland. Mouthwatering beef vindaloo and butter curry chicken + briyani rice.
Tandoori chicken, chutney!! Garlic naan was nice, soft on inside & crispy on the outside. Ok, ok we know easily found, no big deal in Malaysia.. but for deprived souls like us down here, it was divine. Thanks to good recommendation from Brisbane locals, Suzanne & Ginson, we experienced fantastic food at reasonable pricing.
We were glad to have caught up with Christine & Timothy, who are special to us, because they are the ones leading our previous cell group and growing into their roles beautifully.
Jordan was delighted to catch up with old friend, Charissa too, and ran around the apartment with her after lunch at high energy levels...
kids = ENERGY.
No ENERGY = parents approaching 40 or past 40.
NEW ENERGY = after indulging in good Indian food....

Wow chris,
Seems that God is really bringing people over to Australia. Brisbane is suppose to have the best indian food in Australia. So you really gave yourself a good treat !!! I miss indian food too. You look good and I love all the cool and groovy tshirts you are wearing. Good color on you.
