Hua Hin and Burma

I'm a little behind the times, so I need to start filling in the blanks! Jenny and I spent the last 4 days of our trip in Hua Hin, which is a beautiful beach town on Thailand's peninsula. We stayed with an amazing missionary family who packed everything up and moved to Thailand for a year when they found out that an Australian woman (Ruth) who works with refugees needed some help with her ministry (apparently it was only about 3 months from the time they heard about the need until the time they were IN Thailand- kudos to them for being flexible and obedient, and kudos to the three kids for having a sense of adventure and great attitudes about the move!). They now work with an orphanage for for Karen (Ka-RIN) children whose parents have either passed away or who come from extremely dysfunctional families.
