02.07.2023 – Everyday life in the orphanage

I'm finally back!


I got to know five "new" kids and I enjoy spending the days with them. Today we went to church in the morning (about a 20-25 minute walk). There is no special program for the little ones and they sit there very well behaved for the 2 hours - without falling asleep.



A friend came to visit at lunchtime and everyone was amazed at how quietly they ate. It's not that they're not allowed to speak, but because they're always getting veeerily loud (it's difficult to be quiet with 21 children), they were asked not to shout.


Conclusion: They are extremely quiet 🙂


After the afternoon nap, it's time to play. Be it on the playground or in the lounge, with bottle caps or just with a string. Before dinner, we went for a walk and the dried-up riverbed was perfect for digging or playing a kind of dodgeball. In the evening, we prepared for the first day of school - after two weeks of vacation, it starts again tomorrow. Wake-up call is at 6:00 a.m. - for everyone, no matter how old they are. 🙂
