Mae Sa Waterfall

On August 13th, Legacy Institute celebrated the Queen of Thailand's Birthday. In recognition of this national holiday, classes were cancelled. A former teacher graciously funded a field trip for the students and so, we packed all of the students into our blue Sung Tao (pickup truck) and headed off to the Mae Sa Waterfall.

 
The whole park includes ten different falls and a market for lunchtime. The students enjoyed the natural beauty of the landscape. Here you can see Bancha, a third year student, taking pictures of the scenery.

Hser Nay Htoo, a first year English speaker, had fun climbing the falls. This was waterfall #10 at the very top of the falls. She was fearless!

All of the students had a great time climbing and swimming at the park - some even slid down the falls!

The students crossed the waterfall and waved to us from the other side. This is Htoo Mye Shwe - he adds a lot of fun and laughter to the group!

No waterfall trip would be complete without a proper water fight. Here are Aj. Tristan and some of the students near the end of the day.

At the end of our trip, we filled up on grilled chicken and sticky rice from the market. All in all, it was a fun trip and a great break for the students who work so hard every day.
