Thursday night was a relatively early night. Friday morning was a sleep in, up and meet for breakfast at 7.30 Am . Karen the teams incredible mover and shaker of Optical wear, decided to do a quick run down to Cazs room to see what she could do. But alas, our door was locked! I was reasured her that it only needed my muscles. But no, the door was locked from the outside and we were trapped. So of course we laughed until we realised how are we gonna get out? We rang reception who had great difficulty in understanding what we needed. We were told to wait 5 minutes then 10 minutes passed. We rang again, only to be told someone will come at 10am.....NOW we are starting to get really anxious. Sitting up on the fourth floor. We are finally out!

So the day begins now !!!!!! all the medications that had to be taken from the third floor into the vans was already done. It really wasnt a cunning plan. So down stairs we went where everyone was packed up waiting for our drivers who got stuck in traffic. You cant stress about punctuality in Cambodia. There is so much traffic and heat and the very narrow roads all add to its busy lifestyle .

We drove 15 minutes to reach the slums in the city where plastic and dirt littered the narrow road. Our clinic was to be set up in the church and people were sitting waiting for us. These people were very poor but all hard workers. Most of the people who came to the clinic today were suffering with dehydration, scabies and headaches. We would have seen around 200 people today and some told us of how they would drink only 2 glasses of water while working out in the sun.

Although they have nothing they were all warm and friendly and were very grateful for any assistance we gave.

We left the pastor with toiletry packs for the ladies and hand knitted blankets to distribute.

We then went to replenish stock and pack our things for our move tomorrow.
