Our last Day of this trip

On the last day we had just enough time to gather a few more things for the 2nd Orphanage. As we walked to the Orphanage Yolande spotted a small street vendor and wanted to contribute not only to the kids but also to the local guy doing his best at the roadside, so we managed just a bit more green veg. 
We also bought them 4 propane gas cylinders for their cooking needs. Gas there is extremely expensive and for the most part they cook on wood, but thats also more polluting, expensive and hard to find in the city.

This guy was doing his best on the side of the road so we decided to make his morning a bit more profitable.

This lady is the selfless angel that opens her own home to 54 extremely elderly (over age 70) people and nearly 50 orphan children.

These are just a few of the kids (the boys room) at the 2nd orphanage, the rest were attending school. This morning it was 13c degrees and the kids sleep up to 5 in one bed, there is no heat and no lights, they did not even have shoes on the bare concrete floor.

This is little Red.. making it back home and ready for another big adventure in the near future.
