This morning we went back to Hannah's Orphanage to help the children with their chores. We spent some time at the houses, but then went ot hte compound to help clean. We did laundry for almost 4 hours in the pouring rain. And it isn't like laundry here. It is buckets with soap and water and then buckets with water to rinse. It was long hard work. The rain made it so much more difficult. After laundry, we went inside and the children sang songs for us. we then sang a few songs for then.

After eating lunch at the guest house, we left to go somewhere that was a surprise. It was outside the city so it was a drive. We arrived to find out we would be riding donkeys! This is an experience I will never forget! The donkey were bare back. My donkey was a little crazy and ran towards the river and almost tossed me in the water. I then proceeded to fall of the donkey. At least I can say I have ridden a donkey.
