Meanwhile back in Ayutthaya

Rumors of two more volunteers turned out to be just rumors; no volunteers. It got a bit hectic this morning. The English teacher was to meet us at school at 8am with our day's teaching assignments. At 8:10 she said she forgot them in her car and they would arrive in 10 minutes. At 8:25 they arrived and revealed that Shandah and Shera were to teach a 3rd grade class at 8:30. Off we went in search of 3rd grade. We found the room, though, we thought the students looked very young. Shandah and Shera soldiered on only to learn later they wwere with 3yr olds. The teacher probably was saving their face by not telling them that they were in the wrong room.
Ed and I have assumed teaching duties for grades 4 through 6 while Shera and Shandah are teaching the younger ones. Suits me fine! In fact, I'm giving some thought to staying another week. Friday is the day I need to decide.
