Today was wonderful. It felt like getting out of school in the summer time. It was our last day to study at Candlelight Language Center. We’ve been studying for 3 weeks, 3 hours a day. That may not sound like a lot, but your brain can only hold so much. But I’m surprised at how much my brain has been holding. I taught my Lao students at the guesthouse for the last time tonight. They usually help me with my Lao; so I took the liberty of reviewing basically everything I know so far. And even I was surprised at how much I could say. And they were surprised that I’ve only been studying 3 weeks. It made me feel pretty good.
A funny thing happened on the way back from language school today. It’s been raining quite a bit here. And the roads are muddy. We have a little tuk tuk for 6 adults and it already moves quite slowly; so muddy roads didn’t help. Actually, we got stuck; and I had the privilege of pushing our tuk tuk through the mud; and getting it rolling so it could start again. It made me feel like I was in Laos. And I am.
