More Info

Well hi everybody,

We are now here nearly a week, everybody is settling in well, the hotel is brill and a lot more comfortable than we were expecting. We have all been working really hard and coping well with the heat. Today (Friday) it is 36 degrees.

We are all heading to Ha long Bay tomorrow, which everybody is really looking forward to.. Noel has organized for everybody to go Kayaking.... we are going to stay on a boat overnight, so a chance for everybody to dress up....

We have not been shopping yet mainly because where we are staying there is limited shops.

The girls especially are looking forward to shop till they drop, the ladz I reckon are much the same, but would not admit it.... money is burning a hole in everybodies pocket......

Noel is going off today to price up new blankets for all the children in the orphanage... hopefully we can replace them all.

We are hoping to be able to see the babies soon, will keep ye posted.

Brenda.

Hey all, you guys are doing fantastic work. I was in that very orphanage in May to collect the newest arrival to our family who was adopted from there. She's now living in Ireland and settled in so well. Its a great thing you are all doing. We brought out lots of food, blankets, clothing and toys for the kids - the deaf school was still in session when we were there and everyone had presents and gifts for the kids so we're glad we were there before school was out. 8 Irish families were there at the same time as us to adopt kids from the orphanage and all are doing great in Ireland - well done and great work!! Cheers, D

Hi all. Thanks for your great work. We adopted our daughter from Bac Ninh orphanage three weeks ago. We are very grateful that you are taking the time to help the other children living in Bac Ninh.
Thanks again
