All i can say is wow!! Everybody here is so nice and welcoming its incredible. The people at the Tatoo Guest House are just amazing! So sweet and always do their best to make sure your satisfied!
Today started out with Orientation. Orientation was at the STAR kampachea, it was a really nice area with a big table for our meeting. After we introduced ourselves, we started off with a game, Liam one of our ''teachers'' gave us a big stack of paper and we had to make the biggest tower/ building we could in 3 minutes. I was with Zoe and Ava it was so much fun! We had a very big tower until the wind blew and it collapsed in the last 5 seconds. After that we learned to much about the country, history and of course the language.

The second thing we did was the Genocide Musium. I do not have words to describe it. It was so sad it was unbeleavable, just looking at the pictures just made me cry. Throught the tour it just kept getting hotter and hotter. After that we headed back to the Guest house for lunch, lunch was so good, different but good. After lunch we headed over the the killing fields it was an audio tour, the man talking had family apart of this horible sutuation, and half of his family was killed. This was so crazy, educational, and sad. As we walked on the path from sight to sight, you didnt notice but you were stepping of bones, teeth, and cloths. We walked through a path that had a fence on both sides, and a little boy was on the other side of the fence walking with us, saying "water me, water me" it was so hard just walking by. At the end of the tour we went in the Stupa, this had layers and layers of sculls just stacked on top of each other. I could not believe what I was looking at! I hated seeing pictures of  people be tortured, and sculls, bones ect. but I know it was good for me to see.

The part that we have all been waiting for... the orphanage!! When we arrived, the van was swormed with kids, it was so awesome! When we got out they acted like they have seen us before, giving us huggs and kisses, I had an instant connection with a few kids. All the kids would say "whats your name? how old are you?" But to me all they would say was "sister jack!? sister jack!?" It was awesome!! they were so loving and welcoming. There were two kids that i have just folling in love with, the first one is a boy, he is 15 and his name is Lavin, he is the nicest kid you will ever meet, always willing to talk to you, give you hugs when you need it. He has a brother and two sisters at the orphanage as well, they are amazing as well. One of his sisters is 13 so close to my age, I tried to talk to her as much as I could but it was hard, she did not speak much English at all. The whole hour we were there, all the kids would be talking about the kids from last trip! "you know Haley, you know Keavy, Aj?" They love and miss you guys so much!! The other little girl I had a connection with was Jani (Cha Ni) She was 8 but she looked like she was 4! she is the sweetest thing in the world she would not let go of my hand the entire time! It was so hard saying goodbye, but we will be back tonorrow!!

Well this is about all I have to say for today! So exited to be here!! Thank you all for your support!!  Blog soon!
