Today is a new day. I was able to have a good visit with the orphanage director yesterday. We have offered to teach English classes while we are here. The orphanage is large. They emphasize study, which is good. So many wonderful kids. Too bad we can't bring them all home. There was a wedding reception in our hotel yesterday so it has been two days of nonstop music. What fun. We took Dima and Pasha to dinner yesterday. We wanted to take Yulia but she has been sick and could not go.
We are staying in a hotel in Romny. It has one bedroom, a living room and a bathroom. The town is close by and so is the orphanage. We have a fridge and bought an electric kettle yesterday for oatmeal. I am sure we will be a little skinnier when we get home. The water was very cold in the shower. Like being pelted by icecubes. We bought our own toilet paper. Can't quite get used to Ukrainian style.
Dima is kind of the boss of the little kids. It is funny to watch. He cannot wait to come home. We will post pictures when we figure out how. Keep us in your prayers.
