The Cool Cave


Today I explored an underground cave. It had natural air conditioning! I had to go down ladders to reach the different rooms. One interesting rock I saw was the glittering and sparkling crystals. I also saw stalactites, and stalagmites! Stalactites grow down and stalagmites grow up from the floor. In in this cave I also saw a column - this is when a stalactite and stalagmite grow together! It was a glorious sight!

We went caving (spelunking) to find the bumble bee bat. It's also named the Kitti Hog nosed bat. But we didn't find any bats living in this cave. You can go to this Wikipedia website to learn more about this bat by clicking here.


Some rocks were wet and slippery. We had to use a flash light to explore, since there was no other light.

To my blog readers:
How many caves have you visited?
One, two, three? Four or five, or maybe 100!

The Christmas Program

Many of the people in Thailand don't know about Jesus, or His birth. So at our school this year, we are missionaries sharing the story of Jesus. I was one of the wise men for our Christmas outreach program.

This outreach program helped the students & parents to learn more about Jesus, His birth, and His mission. Jesus came to save us from our sins, and to give us the choice to go to heaven and live eternally with Him. My choice is to live with Jesus now, and forever.

To my blog readers:
  1. Do you know about Jesus?
  2. What's your choice?
  3. Do you know why Jesus came to earth?
  4. Have you ever been in a Christmas program?
