A few weeks ago we decided to plan a little vacation to Siem Reap. I feel like we’ve been going non-stop since October and the next few months are pretty full. We were able to squeeze in a getaway from March 21-25. The trip was part of Clara’s and Anna’s birthday countdown calendars – “swimming.” It’s been harder to find a clean pool in Ban Lung for swimming, so to Siem Reap we went!

I didn’t take many pictures. Our goal was to rest. We swam a lot, ate good food, took hot showers with good water pressure, and went to bed. We were also able to visit with the Burkes for a few hours.

The kids love this pool. Sadly Swensens no longer exists in Siem Reap – but Josh found some really good Australian ice cream at a store, and the kids ate their fill. We also found a really good Mexican restaurant and went on their Taco Tuesday.

Our kids were so delighted with our getaway, which Josh started calling Spring Break, and they said thank you multiple times a day for the different things we were able to do. I especially appreciated the break from daily life and ministry. Thankful!
