Ok, so we had our Christmas and New Year after C-mas and NY... wait, it gets better... we had NY before Christmas and Christmas after NY! Confused?? Well it really doesn't matter, we had a great time anyway...

Christmas dinner for Orphans...

I'd been here for only a week or so.
A few days before Christmas a hotel invited 30 of the children from the orphanage that we work with for a Christmas dinner at their place.

Anyway, here are some pics...

The first time I met most of them.

Towards the end they had to wait for the bus to come pick them up.
So we had to entertain ourselves for a while; one of the girls taught me how to count from 1 to, well, 20 in Swahili! ... moja, mbili, tatu, nne, tano, sita, saba, nane, tisa, kumi, ....kumi na moja, kumi na mbili, kumi na tatu, etc, etc... ishrini = 20! :D

the kids really enjoyed it and had so much fun especially eating their spaghetti noodles. heh!

Group shot...
Say Cheese!!

Here's a close-up
check this kid out, so funny... and the kid in the back, poor thing!
