We are excited about our trip. We will be volunteering in an orphanage. It is an amazing opportunity to take our kids out of the bubble they live in to experience life helping others in another part of the world.We don't know what to expect. The living conditions are less than ideal: intermittent water and electricity, mosquitos, "no see ums", hot, humid weather - all of which will test our tolerance levels. So, stay tuned and hopefully we will be able to post while we're there!
Tuesday
No electricity tonight..which means no toilet....no gas for the stove (dont ask why the gas doesnt work when the power is out!), and of course no water in the sink..and in case we were not being taxed enough an invasion of maggots. The score...maggots 2, dads zero! THat's all, running out of power for laptop...will try to load some pictures and will hopefully get some time tomorrow to catch up on writing! Pictures are of Tighe doing his job this morning and Aoife with Indi, who has attached herself to Aoife. Picture of Eric who has been running soccer/basketball camp. In spite of the inconvenience...we are having a good time! XO
