Woke up this morning and we were again informed that we sould not be going to Christ. Instead of going to Christ I went to the monkey sanctuary with the Eugemot Orphanage group which was really fun. The kids were really interested in seeing the monkeys.

All thirty kids fit in a tro tro with Jackie, Matt, Diana, myself, and the driver. The kids at Eugemot are much different than the kdis at Christ. While they are really well behaved which is nice, they are also much more withdrawn. They don't really get excited to see you likt the kids at Christ do. There were two little girls there, Sarah and Doreen, that were super sweet.

They sing a song at Eugemot that goes:
"If you want to come to orphanage,
see the master,
write your name,
hallelujah!
The boys are handsome,
the girls are beautiful,
the teachers are good,
forevermore."
It's pretty hilarious.

We pretty much sat around the rest of the afternoon napping. Because it is Emily's 21st birthday we went to Lips for a few drinks which was pretty fun. We arrived back to home base after curfew which was kind of scary at first, but really uneventful, so I'm assuming this curfew thing is pretty much donezo.

Hope everyone is doing well!
