There’s something special about our neighborhood. Maybe it’s the way we consider each other family.
We Are Family
This week some Bible college students from Canada visited and helped us show our neighbors just how much we appreciate them.
We had a “Cultural Exchange”. The students taught our neighbors English and some North American games and songs, and our neighbors (mostly the children, but not only!!) taught the students some Thai and some Thai games and songs.
Not Sure if Mrs Chicken is a Thai Game or North American..
Every day women from the neighborhood brought drinks and lunch (real lunch, fried chicken or pork or noodles) for all the participants

Gimme Some of That Real Food
We topped it all off with a big neighborhood party this morning.
It's Not a Party Unless There's Ice Cream!!

Cool! Looks like everyone had so much fun!! Dagny’s on to something…I need to start painting my body in the colours I “feel” that day.
Helen says:
Really enjoyed the pictures. You certainly seemed to be doing well and the Thai children and adults are pitching in and learning as well. Keep up the good work we are so proud of you.
