Hey all!
The York school India trip has spent yet another great weekend at FFC bonding with the kids, and hanging out.
Early saturday we woke up, excited to be back at FFC and seeing all our new friends. Most of us started the day playing in the baby room. They were all so cute, and we could tell that they were becoming more comfortable around us. When the babies went down for their nap at 10 am, some of us went to the kindergarten while others went to see the older girls. While with the older girls a few of us got a chance to meet the new volunteers at the orphanage, the Dutton's from Toronto, who are here for a week. We all moved to the kindergarten class when music was put on, and had a crazy dance party! Soon after the boys were sent on an important mission, to paint the shutters in the small boys house. We didn't realize what a task it was, until paint got everywhere! For supper we got a little taste of home with a big serving of spaghetti and tomatoe sauce! yum yum! After supper we hung out with some of the older girls, playing hand games and reading palms, then off to bed in anticipation of an exciting sunday.
Sunday we had a bit of a slow start, a nice sleep in! off to breakfast, where we discovered spaghetti and sauce awaiting us at the table. After breakfast the girls headed off to be with the older girls, while the boys went to finish painting shutters and play soccer with the older boys.
The after noon was spent with the older girls, listening to music, doing henna and playing with our ever interesting digital cameras.
All in all this weekend was a complete success and completely exhausting!
love the india trip
