I never knew food could taste so good.

Today we were in the capital city, and we knew that The director from the village was in capital city with some of the kids from the orphanage. We gave her a call and arranged to meet them at the Metro Bar and Grill. They were very excited to be joining us, and even a little over whelmed by the menu. The menus there are English...which is one reason we like it there.... We were able to get a few Russian menus for them, but told Altynai that she had to use the English one. They ordered chicken casadias, chicken Kiev, burritos, even T-bone steak... Altynai had potato skins with cheese and bacon.... When they were done, Altini said that this was the best food she ever tasted, then she leaned over and put her head on my shoulder and quietly said with great contentment...
I NEVER KNEW FOOD COULD TASTE THIS GOOD.
