Morning!! 6am, late to bed and a not so great sleep. Have breakfast and help get the children ready for school we then plan our day and week to follow. Kally and I have decided we will spend the start of the day planning our visit to Mathini a place past volunteers found approx a few hours in travel mostly walking, where a family of 9 are live in a houe with no roof, the children have one shirt each and no food. We will sort through donations we have and take some to these people along with supplies.....rice and beans etc we will somehow carry. There is a mountain we need to climb so this will limit the amount of supplies we are able to take. We will try to arrange a donkey to take some of it part of the way and the rest of the way we will carry. This will be our hardest day yet.
The 2 American boys have started the project of building them a house and construction should be underway when we arrive. They have been waiting for the bricks to dry and everything seems to be going to plan.
Our day today also spent planning our trip to Lake Nakuru for some of our free time we have on the weekend. Can't wait to see the Flamingo's and we have heard from the others they have HOT showers. Very excited 5 days and still no shower :-(
Back to the Orphanage for dinner...rice, ugali and beans. Hang out & play with the children, feed them, say their prayers and sing songs, before the brushing teeth check list. The kids really make my day, they are just beautiful :-)
