Woke up at 4:30am. Left for temples at 5:30am. Long day of temple hiking. Big afternoon rain. Took Palm Tree kids and volunteers out for dinner tonight. Wiped out. Will take a boat ride in the morning to visit a river village. In much need of sleep. Traveling back to Phnom Penh tomorrow afternoon. May get photos loaded tomorrow night (Thursday, Indochina time) or Friday afternoon. On Friday morning we are going to visit the boys dorm and library that Shelley Wexler funded in lieu of my executrix fee at the APCA orphanage. I had a plaque made in her honor, that I’m going to take out there to have installed. On Saturday morning I’m taking all 96 Palm Tree kids to the beach for the weekend! I better get some rest. sweet dreams. The kids favorite dish at dinner was the frog (not just the legs)!
