Saturday morning we set off at 8am with 35 very excited children and about 20 adults in 2 mini vans, yes I think there is a joke in there! But it worked. We went to a large shopping mall with the cinema on the top floor, and after a little confusion with the seating (they still have numbered seats) we settled down to watch the movie. It was a Nepalese movie, fairly easy to follow (maybe the Nepalese subtitles helped), but unfortunately it didn't have a happy ending! The return trip to Godivara was very quiet, children asleep on our laps and all round us! They had had a big two days. And there was more to come....
After a rest for all we returned late afternoon for what could have been described as 'Christmas in September'! 35 excited children sitting patiently at their desks while we handed out presents we had bought. It's amazing how a ball, pack of cards or a small toy can mean so much to someone. For me, that was my Christmas. St Bernard's at Mt. Gravity donated a parachute which provided lots of fun and laugher. After yet another lovely meal at CWC we returned home ready for our night cap and bed!
