New Year Trip

We went on a short trip outside the city for a day to visit our friend's family. We went to his relative's house, ate lunch, played games, and hung out. Then we went and climbed a hill. It was fun.

We climbed this hill near our friend's house. It was the middle of the afternoon during the hot season, so it was definitely hot.


Nice hat, Deb.

New Year!

Sorry it's been so long since we've updated the blog. Here are some pictures from our Khmer New Year party on Saturday. We played lots of games. Below: 1. One game involved blindfolding someone and then they tried to break pots hanging above them filled with candy. It was quite fun. 2. Musical chairs. 3. People throw powder at each other. It was entertaining. 4. A random game with balloons. 5. In this game the guys line up on one side and the girls on the other. Each person is assigned a number. Someone calls out the number and the guy and girl run to the middle and try to grab the branch and make it back to their side without being tagged by the other person. Lots of fun!
