2006 Village Day
at Baan Dada's

A kid walking along the path to the teacher's house. She was coming to get us.

A 20 foot greased bamboo pole. Last year it was 50 feet, but Dada worried about someone falling.

Someone finally made it after 25 people tried.

The grid for hanging the candy for the candy jumping game.

A final shot of the grid, moments before.....

The grid is lowered and pulled up again several times. Kids have to jump for bags of candy and toys.

28 people in the back and 8 in the front, not even the most I've seen.

We passed out some donated bags of clothing for the local villagers.

We also passed out plates with food for everyone. There was a lot of food that day.
