My hosts got back from their weekend in Kep early because there was a fire in one of the buildings at the clinic! Thankfully no one was hurt, and it wasn't one of their main buildings, but it did house a LOT of supplies and machines that were all lost. Very sad and disappointing.
Shelves that stored supplies for the clinic, including most of their stockpile of sutures.
These flowers managed to survive the fire somehow.
Then I got to go shopping at the market with some of my hosts!
Monkeys climbing on the wires is not a sight you see everyday in US!
Fish jerky. A bit smelly.
So many dried shrimp! There were all different sizes.
BBQ squid on a stick!!
My hosts buying squid on a stick for dinner. Yum!
Next post: my first day at the clinic!
Don't eat any of that stuff! Just look at it! Photograph it. Then eat granola bars.
ReplyDeleteWow, the fire was a LOT worse than I imagined. Very sad to lose all the equipment and machines that I am sure took a lot of effort and donations to acquire.
ReplyDeleteI agree with M--just photograph some of those market delicacies! You don't need any more upset stomach experiences!
