Dongyang - Day 10 April 4th

dongyang orphanageOrphanageToday we went to my orphanage. Before we went to my orphanage we went out to a local store and bought food for the orphanage. After that we went to an appliance shop and bought the orphanage two washing machines.

 When we went to my orphanage we met with the orphanage director, Mr. Xu and some of the staff. Then after we met with Mr. Xu we saw the little babies. They were so cute! The sleeping babies slept two to a crib. One's feet in another's face. We didn't meet the other children because they were at a local school. In Dongyang the people believe education is very important. After the tour the director was nice and took us out to lunch. We went to a place where the director said it was known for its good chicken. It did have good chicken.

woodshopsAfter lunch we visited the wood carving shops. There were two whole city blocks of shops filled with beautiful wood carvings, big and small.

Later we invited the orphanage director for dinner at the hotel. He brought some of the orphanage staff with him.me and budda
