A day of fun!

                                                                                            Catalyst is moving onto dump # 2!  The chickens in the basket were for a game of catch the chicken!  You can imagine how well our children did with that game!  All of the food you see was being prepared for the Khmere Tet, which is the Cambodian Tet.  Catalyst put on a huge Tet party tonight, with the local woman preparing all of our food.  Maya ate her weight in pork!  Crossing my fingers all will be digested well as we have a 6 hour bus ride in the morning!  the party was amazing!  I willl post those photos when we get home.  The pictures of Eric swinging a alarge stick was a game that the local students provided for all of the children.  It was blind fold the child. spin them and send them off to break the clay pot, sound familar?  They then receive the gift in the clay pot.  Clay pot sharreds were flying!  We also played tug-a-war.  The kids had a blast and the adults breathed a sigh of relief that no skulls were craked on the cement and no eyes were lost to sharreds of clay.  And no chickens were killed in the chicken catch!  However I think they may have ended up on our dinner plates?  the next blog will be from our very own kitchen!!!!  I am hoping Maya will write a little!!!!
