Former street kids and the staff of Father’s House are going to the beach
“ Saturday early morning 5.30 am we set out to Tamaraw Beach.
40 people, 5 cars a lot of luggage.
After a two hours drive and a boat ride –when everybody fell asleep
we reached our destiny: the island Mindorro
Someone took us directly to the beach and our holiday started right away.
Although there was a fresh breeze the small kids couldn’t get enough of playing in the water.
Apart from enjoying the sea, we had lots of games like a treasure hunt,
sand castle competition and ”Olympics”.
Another highlight was a ride on a “glass bottom boat” . We could watch
colourful corals and fishes and even a turtle.
The girl’s ride on a banana boat came to an sudden end. No gasoline! So they had to be saved by the glass bottom boat. That looked very funny.
A very special event was the baptism of 3 of our girls – in the sea of course.
The last evening we had a campfire and barbecue roasting sausages Marshmallows and shrimps.
We had 3 fantastic days. Everyone, including some Filipinos had a sun burn.
No one was ready to go home.
But- as life isn’t just Mango shakes and sunshine, there was no choice, we had to go back to Manila."
