Ok so this is another long post with lots of pictures .. they tell the story better then I do .
We started off with a stop at the Baby hospital to get things started for the little baby . It had part of its bowel removed , and now they need to put things back together .. The parents were notified that the funds were in , and they are on there way in now.
Next stop was to the seniors home at the end of the valey . We wanted to stop in and say good buy to them before we go.

We then stoped and picked up Luba and one of her brothers . We brought them back to Tokmok with us for lunch, then some shopping at the Bazaar.
|
Nadya sure is growing up .. but boy is she developing a bit of an attitude |
|
After shopping , we loaded them on the bus back home , then went and picked up Kolya . He was coming with us to visit Victor. |
Victor lives a long was away, and you can't get there by car, so we have never actualy been to his home ourselves before .
|
We drove as far as we could .. through the feel along the side of the tracks |
|
finaly we saw Victor coming out to greet us |
|
then we continued to walk along the tracks |
|
Sergey waited back with the car and we walked on |
|
Finally we came to his little village |
|
We were met by some village kids showing off for our camera's |
|
it sure is strange to be in a village with no cars |
|
It was nice to have Kola along with us as well .. the boys have been friends since they were in the orphanage together soooo many years ago . |
|
Victors Grandmother loves Emma |
|
Baktagul was with us for the adventure .. I love this picture .. she does more smiling now then ever before . |
|
Shannin had an opportunity to spend a little more time with him .. they have really connected |
|
I like this picture as well .. it was taken along the tracks as we walked back to the van |
|

|
Final good buys |
|
Now you may have noticed here ... NO JENGISH .. he was in Bishkek . he had a project we have been working on finishing up , as well as one young girl we know is in the hospital, so he went to confirm details before we paid for the operation .
Tomorrow we are all back into Bishkek for our final Day . A dentist appointment for Julie, and a meeting with the director of Swetly put to work on the medical needs of 7 of her kids . Then its off to the airport tomorrow night .
