Merry Christmas!!
(okay, so I know it’s a little after Christmas, but at least it’s before the new year).
We drove out to the village in the afternoon and stayed there for the night. That evening we went caroling through the village, stopping at the church members homes.

| Christmas caroling in a village |
 |
| Caroling without snow on the ground isn't an experience I've had often. |
The next morning we got up and held a Christmas service.
 |
| The church was decorated inside and out with balloons and streamers for the Christmas celebration. |

| Before the morning service I answered medical questions and gave out medications. |
 |
| The afternoon we arrived there was a pig tied up outside the church, in the morning the pig had disappeared and there was lots of fresh cooked pork for breakfast and lunch. |
We also held a Christmas party for the AYDC kids the Saturday after Christmas. At 9 a.m. there were stands set up around the compound for them to play games. Then we all ate lunch together, during the afternoon there was homemade coconut ice cream to be eaten! (it's so good!!!!) Dinner was served, and then it was time for the Christmas program and handing out the gifts to the kids.
That's shows you a little of my Christmas experience in Thailand. There was so much good food to eat, and fun time to had by all.
