Our swedish had friends visited this orphanage before and we followed them there, some 35 k's from Ouaga, a rather big orphanage of over 100 kids run by nuns. They take in kids from 0-12, after that they go to foster families. They are trying to be as self-reliant as possible, which means there are chicken, rabbits, a few cows, a vegetable garden, their own waterwell and most importantly a school.
The children varied from scared to surprised and cute. I played football with a couple, one kid held our hands. Our friend did a puppet show for them, something they never saw before. Kermit the frog did not get a very big welcome.
The old man was a hit, but it was cruel of us to put him in a bag afterwards: how does he breathe?
