We Can Build An Orphanage

Friday was an early start, and was non stop! The first thing we did was head out to the orphanage to watch the triplets during their in-house school for a bit. It was wonderful to see what a positive experience school is for them. When the school day was finished for the girls they decided to sing a song for us, what a treat!

After our serenade, we decided to break out a few of the games we brought from the states. Like any kid, they were entertained for a while but were ready for more. The more we came up with was taking the kids out for some fresh air and a coke. The kids love coke, and the coke here comes in a ½ leader glass bottle! A few cokes were shared and it was off to the town play ground for even more fun. We met an American-Haitian name (Reginald) that moved to town to take over the care of his grandmothers property. The kids love the play set and would play on it all night, but after an hour or so it was time for the kids to have dinner back at the orphanage.

After dropping off the kids we had dinner at Hotel de la Place to catch up with Lia and Franz, the people who run the orphanage in Haiti. We had a great time chatting with them but dinner was awful and we were all tired. It was no surprise that we went back to the hotel a bit early so we could be ready on Saturday, for even more adventures!
