Hey hey hey!!! Its Eli and Alice here and just to warn you we may not be able to complete this blog due to giggles...
SOOOOOOOOOOOOO today we woke up at 7:32 am and put on our lovely new thai dressing gowns first we went and ate breakfast but alice dropped her drink so we had to clear it up before any nasty little accidents occurred alice had toast and marmite and eli ate 2 slices of toast and butter then alice went upstairs for a shower but when eli came up she was back in bed so eli went in the shower instead then alice went in the shower and then we discussed whether baby sick would wash out of clothes because emma got worried about it so then we got changed into half decent clothes to balance looks versus practicality..... okay you really don't care...
SOOOOOOOOOOOOO all but two of the guys went to build the toilets today and although they'd had a tough morning felt a great sense of achievement. They've worked really hard and should be proud of themselves. They have completed the job to the agreed level but some are so keen that they may return to continue tomorrow.
The rest of the team went to a local orphanage in the morning where they experienced a great contrast to the Jireh Home (toilet orphanage). Here a much smaller number of kids were provided with great facilities and an ample amount of nannies, this resulted in us feeling not of much help but the happy and healthy atmosphere the young children were receiving was encouraging to see. The lady running the orphanage, Connie, was particularly inspirational due to her many visions for the place and her humble attitude.
The whole team had a restful afternoon with some going to the pool while others slept before a trip to the Airport Plaza where we shopped and ate dinner. We could waffle on about what we ate and all that we bought but you probably have lives to get back to so yeah! Thanks for listening!
Lots of love and kisses from Alice and Eli xxxxx
P.S. our door got angry and locked us out hence the title. Thanks to Pete and Simon we DO have a bed to sleep in tonight extra kisses, luv ya!
Hello Jake (and anyone else who happens to read this)
ReplyDeleteHas anyone else been feeding the fish on this page? They always seem very hungry when we check them!! :)
It looks very warm where you are in the pictures, Unlike here in Reading. :(
What were the prickerly things you were eating they look very strange!
Will there be any shelter for the toilets? They look a bit exposed.....
Have you found any creepy crawlies in your beds?
We're all looking forward to the end of term. One week to go, but that means most of you have got less than a week left in Thailand :(
That's all for now....
P.S Make sure Andrew brings some presents back :D (For Amy...he he he)
Love to you all.
