for all that. It actually brought a tear to my eye, remembering all those things and then the sad part when they were waving us goodbye all hanging out the windows. And yes, the shorts episode. I bet Sandy did think what is she in for. It is fantastic what you wrote here and I wish you could be there again for this year because it would be great to catch up with you again. You really do need helpers because you can't be everywhere at one time. Some want to swim, some want to just sit, some want to play games, so we need some helpers in the water, some playing games, some just mingling with the others. The boys in particular love the water and don't want to come out. I remember the day was so hot. You took a photo of me. I look an absolute red "wreck" as I had been in the water, typing up material around their legs for the 3 legged races my hair was endescribable and I had to go straight to the orphange after they left to talk about the toilet. Didn't even have time to change or comb my hair. What a beautiful memorable day and I thank you again for helping to make it possible.
