On Wednesday we had an amazing visit to a higher education school in the refugee camp.  Many of these students hope they can come to a third country  like Australia.  The camp is very crouded and the houses are very small.  The land was so steep we had to walk up steps in the mountain to get to the school.  All the students were lined up to welcome us.

They did an amazing dance for to welcome us.

On Friday we went over the border from Thailand into Burma.

We had a ride in a taxi bike very similar to the Indonesian becak.  I was sitting in one when I took this photo.  I was amazed at the chair this man had just made.
