Well the 12s were strong at 1:30 in the morning to see the game from start to finish at the Arusha hotel. We took a group pic at half time and felt confident. Alas, it is a game and it didn't fall our way. Congratulations to the Patriot fans. It was fun and we shuffled back to Freedom Lodge as the sun was rising. We met some nice people. Then we grabbed a few hours sleep and shuttled off to Tamiha Orphan Project where we handed out hats, cars and other donations. There were over 70 kids there today at the nursery school It looked like 84 signed in. We got hats to almost all of them and hot wheels to everyone. One little girl came running up to me to give me (and to get) a big hug of thanks. Wow.
Sixteen of the kids live at the school and the rest are in the community. There are many more than 70 in the pre-school level. We don't have a count of the kids who are already in primary school and beyond as they were in school when we visited. They have a small beginning but with education they can go far. Tamiha watches over them and they are not dropping through the cracks.
Tomorrow it is off the the Serengeti, to a new place for all of us. I'm leaving the laptop behind and will post after we return. It seems impossible but we will start flying home on the 9th. Too quick. Too much to do.
I still say Go Hawks.
