Day 7 - One day in Saigon - Tan Hung District

The medical & distribution team had one last day on site in district 7. We had 100 children to see who got their medical exams and bikes, and food. The girls here are our oldest girls, and their family has been pushed to the outer limits of the city to live in squalor as the downtown tourist areas grow and prosper. They were our healthiest
kids, of the over 1100 we've seen, but were happy to see that a new bike would help them get to school faster. It was all done in just a few hours and we celebrated by having pizza delivered from Chez Guido! Hard to believe, but it was quite good! We were all back on the bus by 1:00 and went another 3 hours to Long Hai Province - to get ready for camp. Overall we are all completely exhausted and emotionally and physically - but we're all getting excited to be on the beach with all of our kids to just have some fun!
