Of International Camaraderie: The Sheikh & The Little Prince

Perhaps you might be thinkin' if the title really speaks for itself. I mean the real thing. And that I have met one of the Sheikhs here and his little prince. Hahaha! Brace yourself it's just my kumpareng Randy Turiano.

Earlier tonight, my wife and little C attended the "International Community Day" celebration annually held by the National Guard Health Affairs (NGHA) - where my wife and kumpare work. It's a yearly tradition showcasing different cultures & traditions represented by employees of NGHA who hails from various countries.

Basically, its purpose is to promote international camaraderie and cultural diversity - showcasing some native stuff coming from each participating country. Allowing everyone to get to know more of other countries cultures and traditions. 

I didnt' bother to go with them since I'm quite lazy to go out due to the cold weather. Plus, I'm working on the plans for our upcoming "Family Day" wherein a brainstorming slash meeting will happen tomorrow to finalize the various activities for the said event.

I'm retelling the fun they have had as relayed to me by my wife when they arrived around 1045pm. She enthusiastically bragged to me that the event was a total fun.

Apparently, only the Filipinos represented by nurses showcased a native dance from Mindanao called "Singkil" to the applause of the crowd after. 
So excited he got to wear a "Toub"
His Highness Sheikh Randy Turiano  LoLs!
The part I was highly interested was when she told me that Little C was asked to wear a Saudi traditional outfit by one of the staff named "Hannan". She was really excited to dress up Caleb and positioned him into their Saudi booth beside the little girl who happens to be the daughter of a South African working on the same hospital. Subsequently, she also asked kumpareng Randy if he's interested wearing traditional dress as well. And my kumpare according to my wife grinningly agreed to put on the dress. And tadaa! As you can see above. He looked like a real Sheikh - LoLs! 
Future Love Team? LoL





I had a bit of regret - kung di sana ako tinamad, I could have taken several photos plus each booth of various countries. Sigh!  Good thing, I was able to ask some photos from kumpareng Randy itself and that's the reason why I was able to post a new entry hehe!
