Cambodia is more than a little bit Random

Our Saturday routine includes rising early to teach an institute class. Today was no exception! We arrived at the church about 6:30 and got the room ready, then waited for these amazing young adults to arrive. We waited.  And waited.  And waited! We began to wonder if anyone would come because of the holiday, even though all we had talked to during the YSA conference assured us they would be there. Finally at about 7:02 our first student arrived. About 2 or 3 minutes later a second; then three more. We ended up with 9 students in attendance. They all seem to enjoy being there, and discussions include everyone.  This is a great way to start a Saturday! (Followed by FaceTime with the family!!!)

Every day as we go about we are surrounded by some amazingly random things. We often mention some of them, but here is a collage picture of the recent randomness we have observed.

We have mentioned ladders on motos; well here are three different ladder shots. Motos are also a major vehicle for transporting goods here. The container strapped to the moto in the center was as wide as a car, and piled about as tall as it was wide. It is amazing how well he could balance this load and still maneuver his way down the road.

You want a ride? Why not ride as a passenger in a Rick-Shaw. Or maybe you can have your load be pulled by a team of oxen.

But if you want a really good burger, stop by "Mike's Burgers" for lunch or dinner.  This is far from the entire randomness we have seen, but these are a few we were quick enough to take a picture!
