last day in Cambodia...

Su-stri-a (hello)

Sorry it has been so long. Leaving the kids at the first orphanages was so difficult. By the time we left the kids & our team was crying. All we could repeat was "God loves you. We pray for you. You are beautiful." My heart just broke for them.

Thursday we got up bright & early to head to battambang. The 5 hour bus ride took us to our hotel. We then headed to the orphanages. We did hair & pictures for two out of the five. These kids were more layed back & shy. I believe its because some have only had two guests. We then again had a sweet dance party. It was bitter-sweet because our last night in Penom Penh we had one. I feel horrible now because my heart wasn't fully in it. These kids deserve our love just as much as the others.

Today we headed to Siem Riep (2 1/2 hour bus ride). At the bus station our tuk-tuks weren't there yet so it was an interesting experience. We then headed to ankor what & some other site seeing stuff. It was cool to see how God gave talent to people to create such beautiful buildings. But you also got this eary sense about the shrins there.

Tomorrow we head out (plane leaves at 2) to Thailand. Please pray that the group we have safe travels & open hearts for these kids. That God would let us work there & our hearts would be open.

Some of you have asked about the food & sleep. The food is very good, you just don't always get what you thought you would :) and the sleep is above average. It will be nice though tomorrow to have a "down" day to let our minds soak in all that we have seen. Thanks for the prayers. I hope to do a better job of keeping this updated.
