All good things must come to an end... :-(

We started at the orphanage - and sang the kids' favorite song... Heal The World....... We then gave out the photos we took of each of the kids and they made photo cards.... Had a couple of hours to play some games before it was time to say goodbye.....


Heal The World......

As you can see, a year on, the kids are still fully-engaged with this song.....

Selecting photos for the photo cards

And the kids got to make their own photo albums as well...

:-)

Playing cat and mouse...
The basketball court at the orphanage coming together!!!! Concrete will be done next week....

A very tearful farewell at the orphanage...

Many of the kids wrote us some magnificent notes...

Time to wipe away the tears... we will be back.....

Some of the kids came to see us off at the airport  :-(

Not the happiest bunch, but we plan to return in January.......  ;-)


THANK YOU for joining us on this trip - and thank you to those of you who have been so generous in fundraising and donating!!  Hopefully through this blog you have seen the joy and material change we have all brought to our kids in Cambodia. If there is one common theme in the many notes we have received from the kids, it's this - "please don't forget us"..... We won't, and we hope you won't....

Until next time,

Steph, Alex, Mich and Aviv
