Wow what an experience! I want to do that with the elephants and see the bears! Its hard to imagine sometimes that we will get to do that and so much more for forever. It's worth any price! The pictures from there reminded me of some of the Indianna Jones movies. Keep persevering in prayer. Have a good trip home. Thanks for the stories.

My favorite so far.
This entry has it all I think. The friends, the temples with the intricate carvings, the trees, the animals, the views, just sounds so neat. I really liked the way they have field service. Just being able to talk to people and have them take the time to listen to what you have to say. They probably enjoyed having this giant white American come along for the ride. They will talk about your visit for awhile, I think. The mnkeys sound fun, too theivery and all.

A Lesson in wholesouled service.
Dave, you are so fortunate to be able to have this experience with our brothers and sisters in Cambodia. You're right no other religion or organization on earth has accomplished what Jehovah's organization has. What an increase! what zeal! I just can't wait to the new world when we all can be together and serve Jehovah the way we want to but can't in this old system. I can't wait to hear about service!

Valuable lessons
Dave, what you are seeing and taking away from this is invaluable in our service to Jehovah. It really shows the difference between a need and a want. I wish we all could have this experience. Man, we are so distracted by everything here in America. I feel thats one of our biggest traps of Satan. We have so many superfulous things clouding our hearts and minds keeping us from the one basic thing, our love for Jehovah. You are very fortunate to have this illustrated so well. Be safe!

Solo Sucks!
Dave, sorry about how you feel about being there solo. I saw the video you made with all the trips you shared with Audrey and she does truly seem happy. Again, Ever on!

Communication, Not!
Okay this sounds like it was a big test of your main resolve to just go with the flow and immerse yourself in the lifestyles and culture. I probably would have done the same thing but what a big mess to sort out, huh? You still have alot more courage and resolve than I would have. Ever on!

Which one are you?Larry,Curly or Moe?
Dave, I'm sorry but that was a funny story about the motorcycle! I bet you made their year with that one! You are legend in that village now. I also admire your courage. This part of the trip with it being so remote would be very difficult for me, so rock on!

David and Goliath
Dave you look like Goliath next to that man. No wonder you have so many fans. I wonder also how you get along over there without knowing the language and not many knowing english. Stand tall, brother!

Could I simplify like that?
First, I want you to have a great trip. Second, I don't know if I could pack that small but after a few days of carrying it around everywhere I would be glad I did. Third, Why can't we ever invent anything like packing cubes? Then we could be rich and travel the world. Have fun!

Good luck with that!
Dave, if you're anything like me you go into these things with all the best intentions. I'm going to adapt and just go with the flow and I end up trying to arrange everyone else to my way of thinking. Because after all I know better, right? So you're right, this is going to be a valuable and incredible life lesson. It's something that will help with the friends and in relationships. I wish we all could expand ourselves in this way. Keep expanding!

Tailor shop loses money!
I think you did great getting custom made suits(who gets those?)for the price you did. I think they lost some money though on you with you being bigger than their average customer. They probably enjoyed the change. Keep shopping, you never know when you can get back there to get something you missed!

Wow, Dave!! I have loved reading your blog. I just got your link from Scott and had time to sit and read it all at once. I'm glad I got to do it that way, or else I would be up at the crack of dawn to see if you had posted another so I wouldn't be left hanging! What an amazing trip! I can't wait to sit down with you and hear more when you get back. Take care and be safe, Maureen

HI
I laughed all the way tho, What a experience, now I know that you are on the other side of the world. Last night at this time I looked for your update, and it said that it was updated the August 22 and it was still the 21th. Didn't get it until tonight. So I guess I will always be a day behind. Looks like you got someone to take your picture and not run away with the camera. Glad that you got there safe. Be careful of the flu. MOM

Have a great and awesome time!!!!
