Back at Mercy Center. Father Joe is busy so I was invited to teach a kindergarten class...piece of cake. I do not speak or understand Thai and everyone was giggling at me. I used a whiteboard to draw stick figures of my family, drew a map to show how I traveled from USA ---> Japan ---> Thailand, reviewed many word books and did flash card drills of animals. I introduced the children the various American handshakes.....thumb roll, hi-5 and elbow bump....what a hoot. See me in action in the attached pictures. Father Joe is busy so no lunch out today so I was invited to have lunch with the teachers ...Pad Thai (it was sooooo goood) and rice with pork (yuum). Invited to attend a "real Catholic funeral" at 2:30 PM as a guest of Father Joe.
