Sunday: Day 7 and Day 1 All in one

Today was transition day. The children from Apalina left about 1 p.m. The children from Glodeni with Zoltan Dohi arrived on the same bus that was picking up the Apalina children.

Overnight, the team learned that the camp was to be "fumigated" after the children from Apalina left and before the children for Glodeni arrived. This was the health department's decision regarding the containment of rubella. The team had been told the process would require 5 hours. When they woke up this morning, it was misty and foggy. They were concerned about rain and what to do for 5 hours in the rain. This never became a real problem. There was some rain but no problem.

They had their last Bible story time about the creation of man and woman. Then, they made some really beautiful paper flowers. After that, the time came for the Apalina group to leave. So, Bonnie, Anna, Katie, Sarah, and Paul said good-bye to the Apalina group and waited along with the Glodeni group. They did get some sandwiches to eat.

The new group and team were allowed back into the building early. Nothing like the refreshing smell of fumigation to get you ready for a snack and activities. Actually, Bonnie said the windows had been opened so it wasn't too bad.

So far, it has been a great day. Paul already has his "groupies" who are hangin' with him. The first day was a long day of riding the bus and getting going at camp but ends with worship and then it's off to bed -- well, maybe.
