Bonswa everyone!! We are now on day 5 of our Haitian adventure! We all had a very eventful day in Lagossette with lots and lots of children. We started off our morning with some amazing french toast. Over breakfast we discussed the plans for the day... Which was the carnival day!!! For 4 hours of the day we ran all of the carnival games. The first group came at 10AM and stayed until 12PM. Some of the games included Plinko, Ring Toss, a Small "Dunk Tank" and also a bouncy house! The kids loved it so much. When they were done the house parents came to pick them up and brought them back.
Two of the nannies here cooked lunch for us. We had sandwiches that were similar to sloppy joes and fries. After lunch Kenna, Allie, Christine, Tanner and I (Kayla V) went to the Van Der Pol's to get our hair done. Julien's two sisters came to do it for us. While we were doing that, Wendy taught a health class that we have been teaching each day for the nannies. Then the next group of kids came to the carnival. They loved it as well!
At the same time we were doing the carnival, Christine ran the VBS for the first group of kids that were at the carnival. Everyone was with their house parents by 5:30. It was then time to eat supper so Wendy took Allie, Christine and I to pick up the food from Julien's sister's house. We had beef, fried plantains and dirty rice. We are now just hanging out before our devotions.
Thanks for reading! Stay tuned for tomorrow's stories!!
