By Request

Earlier this year 2 schools near by us had a volley ball competition.
Darow was chosen to play and represent his grade.

Some of our kids got to go watch and we saw Nite who had moved from the orphanage about a year ago. 

Darow got to serve a lot and did pretty good for playing a full court.






Our foreign friends that were here during this time came to watch and support.
It was I think good for the kids and Darow to see us there.  We certainly drew a lot of attention and made Darow a bit popular.
Sorry to say they didn't win. :(
Maybe next year.

The rainy season again


Longan tree is in season again, we planted this tree from a seed and is about 9 feet tall.

Other berry trees are in season, the kids are out picking and snaking almost every day.

Own in the tree, cow and Sorya

New bug for me, this one is a nasty little guy too.
What looks like a little cute caterpillar is actually a shell type body with this really sticky worm underneath.  The little fuzzy things on the sides are very itchy if you touch it.  Also if the cow eats it by mistake it will kill the cow.  I think this is why the kids are deathly afraid Bugs in Cambodia never cease to amaze me.
