There were 22 kids and about 10 foreign teachers, plus three staff so this event was a lot more crowded and busy than the party last week at the smaller orphanage in Mokpo. We did crafts, music, presents, fried chicken and a good time was had by all. Santa even showed up! I think for many of us foreigners it felt good to have a focus for Christmas day, especially those of us like me who have never been out of the country for Christmas. The day was so warm and sunny it felt like a day in April back home, plus many businesses were open so it wasn't a typical Christmas. Many people had to work the next day too...
Of course the children were adoraable and were very excited and appreciative. I had fun taking pictures and video and got a lot of candid shots.
