Bright sunshine!!!!! And rays of hope. This morning I was awoken by small calibre gunfire and people walking past my tent. There was no danger but it was a quick reminder of where we were. As the morning progressed past 3:30am the sun broke. Children everywhere. Typical for a weekend morning for most of us but these children had no parents. With the love of God and a willing orphanage staff these kids survive the days happy.

All of them have smiles and wanted to help us crazy Americans pack our gear. Their reward was fruitloops cereal. They gobbled it up like any normal kid sans cartoons. Happier still they climbed aboard the green bus that was a mix of green, orange, and dirt and took their seats towards a better life out of the city
