We were at an orphanage for five days. Th children were so loving, and
they appreciated our company so much. They couldn't stop hugging us,
and they wanted to play with us for as long as they possibly could. I
can definetly say that being at the orphanage was quite an experience.
Some down sides to the orphanage experience were that we weren't
prepared for what we were walking into. Almost all of the children
have special needs, which made it difficult, and they were very
clingy. I mean it's great that they had so much love to share, but the
dirty conditions they lived in made it difficult for some of us to
enjoy them hanging on us. I know we did a great thing by playing with
and helping these children, but better preparation would have helped
us a lot more with this experience.
