Catch Up #5 (Asia Cup)
Monday our teams visited Trish at her apartment, where she gave a presentation about human trafficking in Asia. After spending time praying, we then visited Rahab Ministries (http://www.rahabministriesthailand.org/), where Trish is a volunteer. Wow, what an eye opener, hearing about a life that is foreign to all of us.
From there we went to S & P, a nice Thai restaurant.

From there we did some souvenir shopping a MBK, a large mall with 6th floor being more of a bazaar type area where one can bargain for prices. It's nice to have a place with a market feel in air conditioned comfort.:)
Tuesday evening, 4 of us headed for the stadium at Ramkamheng University, where the Asia Cup was taking place. It happened to be a big game, too, between Australia and Thailand. I am not much of a sports fan, but it was not difficult to get caught up in the spirit of the evening.
Trish convinced me to wear my yellow shirt to represent Thailand, and I'm glad I did. Many other Thais were wearing their yellow shirts as well. The awkward thing was that the Australian team color was yellow, and the Thai team was wearing red. Go figure....
Unfortunately, Thailand lost quite badly (0-4), so we were disappointed by that. But it was a fun experience.

Hi Sharon,
Great pictures! I tried to send some of mine to you, but I don't think I have the correct email address. I don't know that they are any different than yours, but just in case you might want them. You do a great job with your blog! May God continue to bless you in your work there!
