December 6, 2012 was the King’s birthday here in Thailand, providing Legacy’s students and staff with a much needed holiday. So, we decided to pack all 22 students and staff into the sung tao and one motorbike and head to a nearby lake for picnic and games.<\/div>\n
There was quite a bit of preparation for the outing, and the students prepared all of the food for our picnic. Each portion was wrapped in banana leaves. The ajans were so excited to learn how to prepare the leaves!<\/div>\n
\"First,<\/a>

The King’s birthday was a special treat here at Legacy. The students and staff had time to take a day off and enjoy each others company. Most students had never been to Huey Tung Tao, although it was only 6 km away from the school. It was a fun and uplifting afternoon for everyone.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
