Sports Week at the Baan Buay School

This past week has been a big week for our village. In small towns in America, people can't wait to go see their favorite high school football or basketball games. In our village, people can't wait for the yearly middle school sports competition. For the entire week, almost no kids at the school in our village studied in school, but rather, they watched/played football (soccer), volleyball, betong, and takraw. Today, was the closing ceremonies, complete with dancing (we were glad to see many of our neighbors doing this), a parade, and guess what...more sports competitions. Here are some pictures from today's activities. If you have time, check out the "Takraw" video; it is basically like volleyball, but without hands...cool sport though.
