The Cinema

The week of camp and the following week were Spring Break for the children and youth here. We decided we wanted to do something special with the children who live at the orphanage, we asked to take them to the movies in Nogalis. Originally we were going to take the youth as well, but they had already made plans to go see a movie the following day, so we only took the younger ones.

We piled eleven people into my car and headed for the city. On our way there we discovered that of the eight children, only two had ever been to a movie theater! The theater was a fun new adventure for the children and they had a great time. We watched the Smurfs...

 

The lighting did not appear terrible in real life...

After the movie we walked around the mall briefly and took a few photos.

We wrapped up the afternoon with happy meals from Mcdonalds and the children ran off energy in the play structure. While we were there one of the McDonald employee did face painting for all of the kids.

It was a special day.
