Having fun with our kids in Cambodia


 As I post today's blog entry for Jeana and the team, I am reminded of my first trip to an amusement park with my family. Oh how thrilling and exciting. It was great to have fun with family. These rescued orphan children would have no family go with them if we do not make the effort to send teams to visit. I praise God that we can be their parental guides. 

 Today we took the kids to a small amusement park. As you see in the pictures (below), they had a blast. There was a little roller coaster, a spin ride, bumper fish, and a zipline. Their smiling faces tell it all.  What a joy to be able to provide this for them. Since there are too many kids to fit into the van, we rented a tuk tuk (taxi) for the rest.  How many kids can you fit in a tuk tuk?  Well today it was 12!

After a couple of hours at the park, we went back to Grace Place for lunch and games. Jamie brought jump ropes, and it didn't take long to get some games going.

We asked the kids what they wanted to do tomorrow.  They all said they wanted to go to the supermarket.  Well, that isn't Zac's idea of a great time, but I have a feeling there is more to this supermarket than groceries. Guess we will find out and let all of you know!

Racing down the zipline
Squealing with the Bumper Fish
Smiles, smiles, smiles
"HI! We're having fun!"
Getting dizzy, having fun
