Overview of the Vanilla Coast

Wow! It has been too long! The Vanilla Coast was amazing! My favorite part was the School we went to visit. It is a school for the handicapped and also just for kids whose parents don't have time to take care of them during the day. It was so special. The moment I walked in the door one of the little boys wrapped his arms around me, and I melted on the spot. The kids were so lively. We watched them dance and sing, and I attempted to do the same. Oh boy what a struggle... We brought frisbees and soccer balls and I played with the kids outside. I was in another world. I also made a friend. Her name is Lovasoa and she is twenty three. She was so so sweet, and hopefully we will continue to stay intouch. I would love to go back to that school. I want to work and live in that place. It simply felt like home. Here are some pictures to explain the rest.

  1. What a fun picture. You are so very beautiful Emily.... both inside and out. Your face radiates your love for the children and their faces reflect it back to you.
