So Who's Getting Picture Happy???

NOT ME! This afternoon I went to The Well. Not long after I arrived, a group of 5 or 6 teachers from a public school stopped in to see the place. I understood--not quite correctly--that all these teachers were going to be teaching the girls each weekend to study for their GED. I asked two of the teachers if I could take their picture together, and they promptly put me in the picture as well. Afterward, I discovered that one teacher only would be coming each Saturday to teach; I guess it would be overkill to have 5 teachers come to teach 12 girls, eh?:)
At any rate, the picture below with the teachers is the only picture I took today.

The rest of the pictures here, plus about 30 more, were taken by the girls themselves. They went stir-crazy using my camera today!

The farang lady on this picture, along with her husband Jim, are directors of the progam (see http://www.servantworks.com/well). They are very committed to and passionate about the work; I am inspired by them.

Girls being girls....:)

Tomorrow I have the day free from commitments, though I do need to study Thai and prepare for my English class on Saturday. But I am excited to have a whole day to myself! OK, so I'm a little bit selfish....:)
