Back in Australia

I have now been back in Australia for a few days. It was hard to leave Poipet, and then Cambodia. I really loved it there. I am really missing the moto rides.
My last two weeks were filled with ministry up in poipet. I got to teach some more English as well as our team helped put in some cement for a sports centre. They are going to use it to reach out the the community (its in the middle of a slum). After we left Cambodia we got a chance to see Singapore for three days. A few of us went to the night safari which was really cool. It was quite a culture shock from Cambodia to Singapore, given that Cambodia is the poorest country in Asia and Singapore is the richest. Yet I was still able to enjoy it, even though we weren't there very long. A family let us stay in their apartment, because they were away, and it had a pool that we were able to use.
Being back in Australia, and seeing everyone again has been really nice. Its really cool to see how everyone has changed and all the cool stories each team has, from their own outreachs. I didn't realize how much I missed some of them until I saw them again. Its going to be hard to say goodbye to them in two weeks, not knowing when I will see all of them again. Though at the moment it is just nice to hangout with them again. Thats all for now. God Bless
