Trip to the Market, part 2


These ladies worked in the pharmacy. I think they are Chheng's nieces, daughter's of one of his sisters. The patch on the baby's forhead is like menthol, and they believe that it helps to pull the heat out of the baby. They thought the little one was too hot.

We purchased more toothbrushes and also soap to give to each of the children we are teaching hygiene to in the evenings. We bought such a great quantity that they were happy to deliver it to the church, which made it easier for us.


Bringin' home the bacon


Here is a sample picture of the items for sale at the pharmacy. No prescription needed here. Just buy whatever you please. Atropine, anyone?


Daniel wanted me to take his picture with this corn, so I granted his request. It looks like you can also buy large hoses, sickles, and rope here, among other things.
