Cambodia

I judge people based on their shoes

This week we moved houses. From the smallest house in the mission to a huge mansion.

This is our view: 



This is where we eat:



This is my hammock:


Its nice to be able to spread out. But we're not home very often so we don't get to enjoy it as much as we would like to.

The work is slowing down a bit because the Moon Festival is next week. This week we met with one of our less actives who told us about her life story. She lived through the Khmae Rouge but lost 3 or 4 family members. It was crazy stuff, but the craziest was the story of how she got married. Apparently, the soldiers gathered 28 men and 28 women out in a courtyard and told the men to look at the women for 60 seconds. Then after the time was up the men chose a woman and they all lined up in a row. The soldiers then told them to hold hands to confirm the marriage. They then took their names down and it was official. Hold hands = marriage.

We went to a member's house and didn't notice his big cat that's usually there. We asked him where it went. He said he had the neighbors over for dinner. We told him to invite us next time.
