Today we celebrated the 5th Tuesday with a luncheon served by the amazing staff at Oak Bay Bistro!  It was President Joan's first week back since returning from India.  A number of other Rotarians also had January travel stories to share as we gathered over two  long tables for 32 members and guests!

 

The guests were visiting Rotarian Walter Moore and his wife Kate from the Rotary Club of Berry-Gerringong (District 9710) in New South Wales, Australia.

 

Jill Croft was the guest of Tom Croft; Jean Lawrie was the guest of Peter Lawrie; and Anke was the guest of Pablo Diemecke.  Mary Canty's grandson Brian kept the family numbers up as well. 

Eugen Bannerman shared his work to compile a book of photos and artful creations of our very own Ted Harrison. It was hot off the press and Ted will be paging through it soon!  Ted's health is gradually improving and we hope to see him at a meeting in the future weeks.  After a long absence we were also graced by having David Phillip share his wit and commentary with us today.
