Dad (or for some of those who know his as "Big Tone") began his pilgrimage today to join the Child's Dream team to officially open two of the completed schools the AWSF sponsors. Here his journey begins in the stunning riverside of Chiang Mai travelling to Sop Moei in the Mae Hong Son Provence to open the Sop Moei Nursery School
"Today I travelled from Chiang Mai with the crew from Child's Dream to Mae Sam Leap in Mae Hong Son Provence, where we met up with another group of Child's Dream who had installed the water treatment plant at Sop Moei.
We checked into a small hotel on the Salawin river and enjoyed a great dinner at a local restaurant nearby. After dinner we adjourned to the river to release some laterns as part of the Festival of Laterns which is widely celebrated in Thailand each year and is supposed to bring good fortune to the participants.
Looking forward to visiting the nursery school in Sop Moei tomorrow."
