Central America MIssion President Seminar Nov 2009


Cart we rode from the center to our rooms...or around the grounds.

First evening as we explored the conference center with friends. I love the vibrant colors of exotic flowers here.

Looking out over the lush green valley.


These are part of the view as we rode our golf cart from our room to the conference center. Surrounded by 4 volcanos, serenity, beauties of the earth...


See this volcano spouting a little in the early morning.
Women session with Elder & Sister Andersen. Here Hnas Duran, Martino, Falabella.

Entertainment from Youth Bell Choir and vocalist. Beautiful! They are going to come to the CCM for Christmas.

Breakfast buffet each morning...incredible!

Driving the courses to see the view. The courses are huge...upper and lower.


One activity for these presidents was to dream about driving their very own BMW cycle.

More enjoying the serenity of driving the courses.


One last favorite activity...sitting our our patio overlooking the pool and green landscape and talking and planning after an incredible conference with an Apostle and General Authority. It was a wonderful, rejuvinating seminar,which leaves us with much to think about, much to do, and much to be thankful for...the gospel, our Savior, our family, each other.
