We made it!

Well our whole team is finally in Phnom Penh! All the girls made it here around 11:00 am yesterday. We got to Rebekah's parents' house, ate lunch, and got situated in our rooms. We picked up the guys at about 4:30 pm and went home and at dinner and hung out. There a lot of differences between Cambodia and Texas:
1. the houses go up, not out - Macy and I live on the fourth floor of a five story house but the house isn't really that big.
2. there really isn't any organization to the road system - Most people ride motos which makes the roads super chaotic. There are no stop signs or stop lights so you pretty much just go when you want and where you want. People drive super slow though, so there aren't that many wrecks, which is good because people carry their babies and small children on the backs of their motos.
3. fast food is a little different - When going down the street, we saw all sorts of different animals, insects, and fruit, a lot of which I had never seen before. I think we are all pretty excited to try the different types of foods though..

We have been trying to get acclimated to the time change so we haven't done much in the past 24 hours but today we get the opportunity to go to a wedding. Everyone is pretty excited to get a little taste of the culture here.

Keep us in your prayers!

In Him,
