.Yesterday was my second and last Christmas in Tanzania. And it was lots of fun. I spent it in the bigger town in my region/state at my friend Deborah's orphanage center. ie lots of kids. First I celebrated it with her 7 children who she is the legal guardian for and then at the larger orphanage where she helps 60 children. It was just what I needed to feel the christmas spirit......because really kids are what make christmas, christmas. If you don't have screaming excited kids opening presents it doesn't feel the same; incomparsion to last christmas which I spent relaxing on a beach. My friend Allen's parents came to visit and they surprised us adults with presents as well. :) After the gift exchanges the kids painted a mural outisde the orphanage center with help of Allen's mother who is an artist
here are some pictures:
