Sunday 8th July

Movie day! Both orphanages had requested movies for today and so we gave in and brought the projector again!

Seva Bharti hadn't requested anything in particular and so we brought them Pirates of the Caribbean in Hindi as they are a little older and its more adventure packed. They have a TV here and so because it's difficult to shut out all of the light in this room we played it from our laptop through there. They enjoyed this more than when we had played an English movie and I think they were more engaged because they could fully understand everything. Although we are set on improving their English we don't want to take away from fun activities by making it too difficult for them.

At Kaylehli we had promised to show them 'How to train your dragon II' and they were so excited on our arrival with many of them running around shouting poplah (not sure of the spelling) which is the name of the main dragon in the movie. Although of course luck only lasts for so long and twice during the movie we lost power in the building and had to wait, not knowing when it would return. The second time we ran to the store and grabbed some juice and sat outside for some fresh air and the boys received a snack. Finally the power came back on and with a lot of cheering we finally managed to watch the ending!

Today we also took sizes for raincoats as we are making a trip to Delhi to start purchasing items for the camping trip on July20th! We have full permission now from Kaylehli we are just still waiting on an ok from Seva Bharti which we are keeping everything crossed for!
