Church Fellowship Day

We have frequent outings and recently had a big day at the Hotel Nikko, a resort hotel here on Saipan. The kids had a blast and we adult types had a great time, as well. If you ever visit Saipan, you should plan to stay at the Nikko or any of our beautiful resort hotels.

Mikey liked to go down the slide backwards, on his stomach. This shot was taken as he left the top.

Bonzai Dana and Kayla.


A gaggle of kids headed for submersion.

Malakai and the toddlers hung out at the kiddie pool. They enjoyed tossing balls around and sliding down the kiddie slide. His mom wanted to take Malakai to feed the fish (see below) but he scarfed down the bread when she wasn't looking.

Kayla and Zack love to play "find the penny". I sometmes pretend I'm throwing it into the water, hiding it in my hand. They fall for this every single time.

Libby at lunch.


Quinton volunteered to help carry lunches and drinks. Here he is at the serving area, awaiting his load.

Jon Jon and Junior have recently learned how to snap their fingers and insisted on a demonstration for the blog.

Like all our resort hotels on Saipan, the Nikko grounds and amenities are exceptionally beautiful. They pump ocean water into several ponds on the grounds and have reef fish for guests to see and feed. This is just one of the ponds.

Just a few of the fish in one of the ponds. The yellow fish in this shot are yellow Tangs and there are some Surgeon fish, Damesels and others.


They have a huge Imperator (Emperor) Angel in the pond. Some marine aquarists feel that the Imperator is the most beautiful of the Angels and I have to agree.
