Visit to the country side







We went in this van with the couple seated in the back who are incharge of the puppeteers. They are the Murray's from New Zealand origanally, but they came to Cambodia from Las Vegas Nevada. They are going back to New Zealand after they finish their mission in Cambodia. We enjoy them a lot.

The young men and women who go present the puppet show are donating their time and they go two times a week. There are about 20 youth, but they all don't go at the same time. The minimum that needs to go is 6 in order to put the show on. The presentation is about health care, the importance of nursing babies for 6 months etc.
We were interested on how these people enjoyed this simple production. They do live a very simple life.

you actually get to ride in a nice van. How nice for a change.
What a good cause to help increase health status. Good to see an update. How funny you are hanging with the "Murrays" even in Cambodia.
