Day 6-Beach Day with Kids from Shalom

Saturday, a sunny and dusty day as usual. The first thing we saw at the second that we walked out the door was a "modern art masterpiece", the party bus. 

Inside the bus were random seats prepared for children from 1-12. With the rock hard seating, our journey to the beach started. On the way to the beach we picked up the kids from Shalom Orphanage. The journey was rough due to the the seats of the bus and the time we spent in there, approximately an hour and forty-five minutes one way. We were thinking it was a sandy beach. But when we eventually got there, we found one that was quite rocky. Despite that, as everyone unloaded from the bus, smiles appeared on everyone's face. With uncontrollable excitement, we captured two chairs to set our equipment on and charged into the water. At the beach, we played water volleyball and skipped rocks on the water. Some crazy ones went to explore a boat moored 50 yards out from the shoreline. After spending most of the day at the beach, with sunburns to all, we climbed back onto the bus and started the looong ride home.
