Our annual trip to the Mekong Delta - part 2

 Saturday, 7th of Sep. 2pm - 5:30 pm

From Ba Ton we drove to My Trung, approx. 45 minutes. Again, we had to cross the river, but this time in a ferry.
Don't pay the ferry man, by Chris de Burgh springs to mind !!! And we did not !!!

                   By the way, double click on photos to enlarge ! ! !

Everyone was there to welcome us
Kim Ngang was the one who welcomed us on behalf of all the children.As usual she greeted us "Mother and Father". So moving!!!
Kim Ngang, she wants to become a teacher
Quy not only topped her class, she was the best of all our 20 students in My Trung. Quy received a pre-loved lap top. This is an incentive for others to do well.
Happy Quy with her new lap top.
Tuong Vy ... half a smile ! ! !



We also promised to support any student should they pass the exams to go to Uni !!!
Chi Nhuan ... chi for cheeky !!!
Singing a farewell song
Diem My and Tuong Vy received gifts from their sponsors in Australia

Just before we left we took a group photo of all the children / students

It's always hard to leave My Trung. Since 2009 we are supporting these children, who have grown a lot since then. Not only in statue, also in our HEARTS and in the hearts of our individual sponsors. Sad moment ... Tam biet  ~  Good bye, see you again next year!!!
