Aggies with us on Rabbit Island

Image
Someone has to enjoy all this beautiful creation that God made, so we decided that it might as well be us!! On the last weekend that the Aggies were here, we headed to the coast for a little downtime on Rabbit Island. We got there Friday afternoon and left the island Monday morning. This first picture is of Paul Garret standing on the dock as the sun is setting. We did get rain for one afternoon. It was awesome to watch the clouds rolling as the storm progressed. The 2nd picture is Paul, Rebekah, Macy and Whitley just floating around. Again, this was downtime, so we didn't want to exert too much energy. The last picture I took as I was on the beach and they were walking out in the water. It was a nice weekend are it was really hard to head back to the city! Ronda

The Aggies have been gone for nearly 2 weeks now, but I wanted to give you some more pictures of their time here. On the next blog, I will put up pictures of our free time on Rabbit Island. This first picture is of them on the dock at Rabbit Island. By the way, I guess it would be nice of me to actually give you their names! In the back are: Whitley Lanier, Macy McWilliams, Abigail Elkins, and (of course) Rebekah Dolan. The guys are: John Stone, Jared Wissel and Paul Garrett. The 2nd picture is of them with some of the kids from the school that they helped with on Wednesdays. The kids colored pictures for each of them and Doris had them bound along with a picture of each child with the picture they drew. It was very nice! The 3rd picture is of Whitley Lanier teaching one of her students. As I told you before, they all taught students English from 7 or 8am to 6pm, weekdays other then Wednesday. The Khmer students always enjoy getting to talk to Americans their own age. Again,

Here are some pictures of the Aggies at the Cultural Village. As I said before, it rained nearly the entire afternoon so we are all wet. We were worried about being so hot, but the rained cooled us off...and then some. Ronda

Other scenes from Siem Reap

In the last picture, is some of our group in a tuk tuk. We rented a large bus to take us to Siem Reap and get us around. They were working on one of the little bridges, so the bus wasn't able to get through, so we all got in about 5 tuk tuks for part of the trip. ronda
