On saturday we were invited to visite a friend. He lives with his family in a township in the beautifull Valley of trust. He lives there with his wife and two kids and mother in law. They have a little house but already give to 5 orphan kids a roof above their heads. During the day, one of the rooms (what is already dining room and bedroom) is used for the orphan kids, (27 kids !!!!!!) of the whole community, as a pre school. He, and with help from people of the same township, teach the little kids some pre school stuff. So during the day the kids are not just hanging around out side. He also gives them food. He does this al for free, out of love. They have also a vegetable garden and they make their own bread and cakes. They also share it with the community and only accepts donations not payments. This is a Zulu family taking care of other people within their community. On saturday he had a day organisted for us and another couple to show what he does and what else he wants to do. And the children did some performances.
The children singing:

After this great performance we were invited for lunch. Great south african food. Chicken and rice with salads. And the dessert were the home made cookies !!!!
We did not go there empty handed, we gave them some fruit, toys to make soap bubbles (donated by some friends from Madrid) and kids jewellery (donated by friends from the Netherlands) Thank you all....
