Day Two "Okatas and Orphans"

Today we took our first Okata ride. An okata is a motor bike that will seat two people and is used as a cheap source of transportation. They sound and look way more dangerous than they actually are though. We took the Okatas across town to the local orphanage were we hung out with the kids for half the day. These kids were so cute. The ranged from infants to maybe eight year olds in the house that we visited. The girls sat and held the babies while us guys took turns singing the kids with our arms (exhausting!). While we were there on of the little boys managed to catch one of the crazy little frogs that they have here and use it to scare the rest of the little kids. These frogs have a fairly good sized body and these teeny tiny legs, so the don't hop they bounce. It took a while to calm the kids down and Beth confinscated the frog and released it back into the bushes. We are looking forward to seeing these kids again if we have the time these next two weeks.
