Saturday

Today was Cody's day off so we went with a small group to visit an orphanage about 10 kilometers away. They had about 40 kids there and most of then were older. They actually lived in very simple but beautiful surroundings on the side of a hill....they each had beds and small tins full of their items, better than the kids in Uganda! We played soccer and games with them for about an hour, and Cody played hard with the little boys and promptly slid into a cow pie. He was covered in brown poo so he had trouble finding friends to sit next to him in the van on the way home.:) everything else is well here....it's pouring rain outside now. We have met so many good friends already- a sweet couple arrived from Michigan, Sidney and bob. They are in 60s but very spunky! Bob is pulmonary specialist.Also, friends named Liz and Keith - our age, but have been married 10 years already. He is surgical oncology fellow. We als have good fronds from new Zealand named destiny and johnno and their 3 Month old baby Zoe. They are her for 8 months and are amazing people. Cody is working tomorrow, and I am hoping got go to church with friends...apparently it is an all day eal here, which often includes lunch at a locals house.
We are here until next Thursday and will do our best to continue to update and call. Please give our love to everyone and send them the link if they would like to read. Thank to you for your prayers, we need em! Cody
