and the pictures continue...
We did a fun fair for the kids and a health fair for the kids and their parents at an elementary. The kids LOVED the face painting, I'm pretty sure they've never seen anything like it and were planning on not washing their faces for a week. It was so cute!
It's really pretty there. I mean really really pretty.
A nice view down a typical street in Phuket. One of the funnest things we did was rent these little mopeds and cruised around Khao Lak, seeing the land the Thailand way.
This cute little guy in the middle is 27 yrs old and that lovely lady to his right is his momma who still has to lift and carry him everywhere (thank goodness for the mopeds with a large cage attached to the side!) She was telling us about how it's so hard on her and we were able to get them a wheelchair through the rotary club! They were so happy- just look at their smiling faces!
You can't go to Thailand and not take advantages of the wildlife! I fell in-love with elephants!! They're so cool! We went on a long ride through this beautiful jungle trail up to a little waterfall. very nice.
This is a quick shot of the hospital. It actually was a great hospital, functioning better than expected!
The pic under is from the health fair. I taught hand-washing and it was so much fun!

Your pictures are really, really awesome Melinda! That wheelchair story is my favorite. What a neat thing for that mom, her son. You should send that pic to the rotary club - they'd be pumped too!
That's awesome! It sounds like you had so much fun. It's cool you mixed a vacation with service. Totally cool!!!
What an amazing experience! Did you go for school or what? I love all the pictures.
Beautiful children & beautiful scenery.. sigh.
