Wednesday, Dec. 29

The first thing we did after breakfast was going to the silk farm. we went on buses out side the city at the farm the guides showed us every step in making silk.

They grow mulberry trees, they feed the leaves to the silk worms, wait for the silk worms to spin their cocoons.Then they boil the cocoons and unwind them.They spin the fibers into thread, witch is yellow until they bleach it white. then they thread it into sheets or what ever their going to make into.

Then we got on the bus back to the hotel to get stuff to bring to a Cambodian school. When we got there we talked to the prince able of the school for a little wile. Then we went to a class room that held English class and they teaches us how to right the groups name in Cambodian. After that we went back to the hotel for the rest of the evening.
