Japan Photos and an Update

Image
Hi, I took over 500 photos in Japan. I have chosen a very small amount of them to show you today. These photos are some of my favourites and I think to illustrate our time in Japan well. Each one has a very small caption explaining the photo a little. I hope you enjoy them! As for an update, I have officially published an update to my GodFundMe page. You can click the link below to read it. That's all from me for now! Until next time, God bless! Darcy-Rea http://www.gofundme.com/bible-schoolhis-hill Waiting to board our flight to Japan. We flew out of Siam Reap, Cambodia. We had a seven-hour layover in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. We walked around for a while, got some lunch then found a spot to camp out for a few hours.  When we got to Japan we had a three-hour bus ride. It was beautiful but I couldn't help but sleep for most of it.  On our first day in Japan, we got to do some exploring. This was at a beautiful place called Oshino Hakai.  W...

Adventures

Hi there, This past month has been simply and wonderfully busy. It was filled with new people, adventures and a visit from my lovely cousin. Firstly, an intern named Josh was here for ten days. he came and taught English as well as helping out with anything that needed o be done. We were able to take him out to the bamboo train and spend a few hours out there with a lovely women we know named Srey. Then, as soon as Josh left our second intern, Ernie, came. We got to do a lot more with Ernie because he stayed for just under a month. But a few days in to him being here our cousin Chantal arrived and mum went up and got her. Sadly, mum came down with dengue fever after she got back from the airport. Thankfully she is back to full health now. We got to do a lot of fun things with Ernie and Chantal. Firstly, Yannick and I took Ernie and Chantal on the Bamboo train. Jordy and Dad went on the motto and met us there. We spent a few hours there talking and hanging out with Srey a...

The Caves

Hi all, Last week we visited a mountain close to town with the team from Canada. But this is no ordinary mountain. It is the site of a tragic event. Well one of the many sites. We visited the killing caves in Phnom Banon.  Thousands of people were killed and tortured at places like this one. But the photos I am going to show you today are not of the caves. 'Why?' you may ask. Because I believe you should see it for yourself. A still photo cannot capture the atmosphere feeling of a places like this. You have to see it, hear it, feel it to fully understand it. Have you ever been to a place like that and do you understand what I am trying to communicate? So instead the following photos are of a few of the adorable monkey we met along the hike. There were so many of them and I took so many photos of them. One of the smaller ones even climbed onto my lap and tried to steel my water bottle. Thankfully I was the one to walk away with it. Some of the were playing on hammocks or e...
