Young Girls in Ban Bok Fark Village, Laos

I was on a small group trip on the Mekong River in Laos. On this day, this was the village that we visited in the afternoon. In all of the villages, young girls and boys were taking care of children who were even younger. In this image, the girl was kissing her younger sister (assumption). I thought it made a more interesting image than one with all three girls looking at me.
