Smiles in the market







These people have a ready smile. If you smile at them they are very quick to respond. We do so love these good, humble people we work with every day.
It is also very interesting how they hang their meat out on hooks all day long.

A Walk Through the Markets












We enjoyed our walk through the market the other night as we went to visit with the less active who we enjoyed visiting. The Elder is eating some pork on a stick. This bottom picture is when we went to visit an investigator who had lotus seeds for sale. Elder Morgan said you couldn't pay him enough money to eat anything grown in the lakes around Phnom Penh. I tried one seed and didn't really care for it but the sister missionaries ate them with great relish.
It is starting to warm up here. It is 10 o'clock at night and it is 91 degrees. We enjoy getting back to our apartment today after riding around in the tuck tuck all day. We have enjoyed a very pleasant Easter, very different for any other Easter we have had. I spoke in both our branches on the meaning of Easter. The members know about the resurrection but don't know the term Easter.
