Drink Up!

I just found out my Vice Principal (the one I REALLY like) was just promoted to Principal at another school... So, on September 1st, he will be leaving.

Yesterday, all of the teachers, including myself, left work at 12:00pm to have a congratulatory lunch for him at a traditional Korean restaurant!  At Korean restaurants, the waiters always bring out bottles of all different drinks and set them on your table: coke, sprite, beer, soju, water, etc... then your only responsible for paying for the bottles you open.  Yesterday though, the only drinks they ever set on the table were beer!  hahaha

So, needless to say, most of the male teachers were a bit tipsy by the end, and 1/2 of the teachers went back to work after lunch!  Something that, in America, would get you fired!  

So, for those of you looking for a job, and who enjoy drinking beer while getting paid to work,  APPLY HERE!

Aaron Update # 5 - Photo Journal!

Aaron had had some trouble sending me pictures to post, because the files were huge and taking too long to send, but we finally got it figured out today!  So, here are some pictures from his adventures in Cambodia this week...  (The ones in previous blogs were found online, just to give a feeling of where he was and what he was seeing...)

The early morning sunrise at Angkor Wat

Bayon Temple at Angkor

Marco (Italy), Sam, and Aaron outside of Bayon Temple...


The next few pictures were taken in the floating village on the Sangkor River.  





This one is my FAVORITE picture!  Aaron is so talented!

The bamboo train at 7:30am (Aaron and Sam)

Jumping high five picture at Wat Banan.

The view of the countryside from the top of Wat Banan.

They spotted this local boy and his cow on their way to Wat Banan.  They had just missed him bathing his cow in a little pond, hence why he is soaking wet.

 Today they went to the killing fields and the S21 prison... Then they had lunch with 3 mormon kids from Utah who have been living in Cambodia for a year and a half, and then headed over to the Royal Palace where they spent 2 hours walking and talking with a monk from Sri Lanka! 

They're gonna be staying one more night in Phnom Penn and then taking a bus at 7am tomorrow morning to Sihanoukville on the coast for some beach action.  More pics to come!
