Party at the Buddhist Temple


I have to apologize for not keeping up with my blog again. I've delayed updating it but only because of my lack of internet service. It seems that the internet gods are having fun at making my life a little harder. For some reason i am no longer able to get internet service in my room. It seems that the only spot i am able to get service is on the roof of my house. It's kind of nice getting to sit out here by myself especially at night when i get to look up at the stars. My family really don't know about me coming out here so it's kind of become my secret hiding spot...for now. I wonder if my neighbors are able to see me? No matter.
I'm posting pictures that were taken a few months ago when i first arrived at site. There was a festival going on at the local watt which i remembered was odd that is occuring during a Tuesday and everyone was there. I went with my friend and counterpart, Vanny and we had a great time.
Apparently this singer is famous in Cambodia and she sang in our little village. My village really knows how to rock!

Hit three balloons and win a prize! Guess who one a sweet basket?
Carnival rides...you know i love them!
This has become my new and favorite Cambodian picture.
My friend Vanny, who i am completely blessed to be working with. She is definitely a strong and driven individual who i greatly admire and I am glad to be working with her. She has helped me feel more at home in my new transition.

Inside the Buddhist Temple. One day i will post pictures of all the painting and images that are on these walls.
To end the night we watched a glorious dance that was nationally televised. Do we know how to party or what? :)
