Walk-A-Thon

The second week we were here, we were invited to participate in this Walk-A-Thon by Minister Phavi, [she is the Minister of Women's Affairs, one of the top 20 government officials directly under The Prime Minister], and her associate Janne Ritskes from the Nokor Tep Women's Hospital.  They are co-partners in building a much needed women's hospital.  Janne took us out to the construction site to see the progress.






Morning of the Walk-A-Thon we rode a ferry across the river to the start.  It was a beautiful rural village, dirt roads only.
