Day 15. We again to the kindergarten to teach English. Given a group of about 8 boisterous boys. Sat them down and got them to draw a bus and then takes about the windows and the wheels and the bus. Then taught them to sing the wheels on the bus go round and round. I would like to say that it was a model English class but in truth it was caos!!! My lasting legacy in Thailand is that at some point in the future there will be an adult who can sing the wheels on the bus go round and round in a Scottish accent !!
Of all our next tasks the next one was the strangest. We went to feed the fish at the local temple. Not sure why but out here you just go with the flow. After that of all things we went a garden centre to get some plants. I have to say some of them were beautiful and as well as doing plants they also had a shrimp farm. Very interesting.
This afternoon I did more gardening followed by more brick laying. Now it says in the bible ask for anything and so these last few days I have been asking for a Cement mixer !!!! It's back breaking work and bing that I didn't sleep last night hopefully tonight will be better.
We have tow new volunteers today. A girl from Melbourne in Oz and a guy from The USA who has just arrived. Be funny having so many around after it just being me.
