Expedition 2019

Thursday 17th January 2019

last morning spent at Vinh Son 5 (where we started on Sunday). the children were very happy to see us again. we did some colouring, made paper planes and generally had a quiet time with the kindergarten children as the older ones were still in school. it was a very nice, peaceful end to our stay in KonTum.

Lunch now and then we are heading to the airport.

Landing expected at 4.50pm.

Mr Dace, Mrs Hall and myself would like to thank all the students who came on the trip with us for a wonderful week.

This morning, we visited Vinh Son 3. The students took part in an array of activities with the children of the orphanage. Yesterday was all about paint and today it was a more relaxed morning of colouring.

After lunch, we went on a tour of the local Ba Na villages which gave us an insight into the life of these communities.

Dinner later on and an early night in preparation for tomorrow's hike in the hills of KonTum.

Today, we started with a visit of KonTum on foot and visited the KonTum museum where we had an interesting talk about the tradition and the people of KonTum.

After a very nice lunch, we went to Vinh Son 4 (orphanage 4) where we played football, painted and made bracelet with the children.

We are now back in the hotel after another very nice meal and a birthday cake for Eunice who celebrates her 17th birthday today!

Arrived safely in KonTum.

We have already visited our first orphanage where the students had a first glimpse of what they will do this week.

Wednesday 16th Trek Day

Back at the hotel after a great trek around the KonTum hills. The students were superstars and seems to have enjoyed the natural beauty of the KonTum countryside.
