Last day and party at Who Will 18/03/10

Leaving home, cycling up to the orphanage for the last time!

Yet more face painting fun! Jumbo, our Phnom Penh tuk tuk driver and friend came up to the orphanage for the day to join in!


Now that's a smile that will cheer you up!

Time for a snack!




The football shirts from my aunt in Norway finally arrived and we were able to use them on our last day there!

There's nothing like a game of rounders on a Friday afternoon, just as the sun is setting, on a newly 'built' sports field!
