Wet!

Wet! That's what I am. Pretty much all the time. It's a soggy world over here! The flooding has expanded to most of the street leading to the orphanage, and has seeped into the orphanage. Even the classroom has water in it. And, the stage area is covered with water. This is a worry for them, because the dancing show they perform every evening is really the only way they support themselves. We wander around all day in water. In the street, it is up to my knees, but it really only covers my feet in the orphanage. There's no way to avoid it. The kids are having a blast! They have made boats out of styrophone and other objects. One little boy even made one with a motor. I don't know if it worked. And, they keep losing their flip flops. They are such hard workers. When we ride up on our bikes, they jump over the sanbags to help us lift our bikes up over the entrance. If a motto hits a pot-hole, they run out to help. They tried to identify pot holes, so they could stick something in them to warn on-coming traffic. It's amazing how thy work together and help each other out, and how they jump right in to help anyone else that needs it. They're cute!
