The gang is getting all ready to move off. That's Gary's blue classic Series LR right in front with Stephanie's "Elmo". Ray's family-oriented "Big Blue" is the last. We were on top of Eric's "Lara" when this picture was taken.

Eric kept repeating to us, "This is very easy offroading.." We'll reckon that! Especially when we're on top of a Defender. :P

Marianne and her son decided to get on the roof for a better view. We switched over to Ray's roof too, as Eric's fuel guage started to blink. Soon, Steph's Elmo started to blink too! The uneven land must have been playing tricks with the guage's measurement.

Ha ha ha... we're on Ray's roof rack while Eric in his Lara moved behind us flashing his head lamp. Disturb disturb ah? :P But at the same time, We were having such great fun! Aren't the owners and their LRs just great?

Hee hee... Stephanie wanted to get a piece of the action from the top of the roof too!!!!

Here is Eric's mum clearing the Suzuki Hill with Stephanie on the roof. She must be enjoying herself, you could just see her smiling from over here! Eric's mum's doing such a great job! Way to go, Auntie!

Another obstacle cleared with ease. Ray's clears the sand mound while Eric's mum looks on. Slow and easy does it..

Now, Stephanie is giving it a go. All the way, Elmo!!

We arrived at the BBQ site, and the group started to set up. The atmosphere was really warm and friendly. Everyone in this group of friends is very close to each other.

The stars of the evening, cos they prepared such delicious food for the BBQ! The kids were lingering around the table, hoping to get a few bites.

Ready, Get set, GO! Once the food was ready, everyone digged in! We chatted and got to know everyone more.

Check out the abuse this Defender can handle! Don't play play ah...

Ray's dog was rather passionate in playing with the kids and this scared them abit. The kids found solace by hiding on the roof of the vehicles. They were climbing EVERYWHERE! Eric mentioned this,"LRs are meant to be climbed upon." So true... They were so adorable! And soon Fred was helping kids to get on and off the vehicles. Defender = Playground, at least to the kids. :P
