First Few Days At the orphanage

Here are a few shots from our first few days at the orphanage with the little guys.

--ToughSoftGuys.jpg Kids in Haiti love to make poses for photos and these guys are no exception.
--InTheCircle1.jpg The digital cameras are a huge hit because the kids can immediately see what they look like. They tend to crowd around so Brian took advantage of the grouping.
--InTheCircle2.jpg Another shot from the inside
--OutsideTheCircle.jpg Here is what it looks like from the outside when all the kids want to see the picture!
--VoleDwapo1.jpg On Saturday's we have structured play time with the kids. The first two Saturaday's we played capture the flag or as we call it in kreol Vole Dwapo.
--VoleDwapo2.jpg They show no mercy on anyone trying to get away with the flag. Brian says they descend like jackals and I quite agree.
--VoleDwapo3.jpg The kids are quite quick to figure out loopholes and rules. This group of boys had been captured and were awaiting someone from their team to touch them and set them free. We explained that they could make a chain to make it easier for people to touch them. They figured that if they lay down they could cover more area.
