The other day, our fearless leader here in Manila (Mike Smith) had his 50th birthday party... In the Philippines, birthdays are huge deals so a surprise party was organized by some of the staff and as with all parties here, games were involved...
The first game involved the ever-present long and skinny eggplant... These always seem to show up at Filipino parties... This game was similar to musical chairs, except the goal was to grab a hold of the eggplant instead of sit down... Kind of like "Yank my Noodle, It's a Dandy"..!!! You can tell by the smiles that much fun was had by all... hehe...
A 5 centavo coin has a hole in the middle... the object is to pass the coin using only a toothpick in your mouth... It was supposed to be boy-girl-boy-girl, but lucky us, the ladies opted out... So here we are, boy-boy-boy, playing pass the 5 cents... Hmmmmmm..??? Not too sure about this, but I was a good sport and I did lead our team to victory...!!!
Tess is congratulating me on my winning...
Now here is Mike and Atheena really cheek-to-cheek with another "no hands allowed" team race.... Aren't these games fun..??
Then of course, they all though it would be a hoot if they could get the big white guys out to dance... So here we are, obliging..... The things I am forced to do in the name of good fun..!!!
Now Tess is trying to teach the guys how to move... I don't think she had much luck, but we all enjoyed watching....
Dessert time.... Mike blowing out all his candles..!!!
And here is the party group... Actually a lot of fun if you don't mind personal embarrassment and public humiliation....
