Happy Father’s Day!
Posted in Information on June 16, 2007 by BrettI just got a call from Molly, and she had a message from the girls: “Happy Father’s Day to all our fathers. We love and miss you all very much.” They also send their love to all of their families and friends, and want everyone to know they’re having a wonderful and exciting experience. The girls have received some e-mails from home, and they are very excited to get them, so keep them coming.
Mornings are spent watching the chimpanzees — there are lots of moms and babies. Afternoons are spent playing with the local children, the girls find that very rewarding. This morning four girls went on “dawn patrol” and watched sunrise at the chimp enclosure. Three girls are currently getting braids from the local women.
The satellite phone is not working, but they do have a cell phone for outgoing emergencies. If you need to contact your child in an emergency you can call Chimfunshi directly; the number is on the resources page.
They’re going into town on Tuesday, so they hope to e-mail then.
