Christmas

It seems like such a long time ago now, but Christmas was great. Woke up at 5 in Phnom Penh with Megan, had a little dance to some Christmas songs as we dressed in our elf costumes, then it was off to meet Santa. We were quite a sight on the roads as we drove on the hour and a half journey out to the village: a bright red jeep being driven by Santa with his two elves in the back throwing out sweets! The children went crazy when we drove in, shouting and screaming and were so excited about the stockings. The giving out took about an hour, and much to my relief there was not a single child left out- job well done!! The rest of the day was taken up with playing with new toys, testing out new roller skates rounded off with a big Christmas disco in the evening. Here are a few of my favourite pics....


Starting my elfing duties


Boromey getting very excited about his new bike from Santa!


Dara getting her christmas present


Megan with the boys playing with their new action men


I decided that before I left, I wanted to get on one of these topiary birds, and what better day than Christmas day!!


Probably my favourite picture from the whole time I have been here. Sharing a joke with little Chris.
