Made it to TM!

Hi Everyone!!!

I made it to TM (Tirgu Mures) on Thursday afternoon and its been a whirlwind of activities since I've been here. Thursday night we went to our intern house and set-up and then had dinner at Kelly's house (she's a Livada Staff Member). Friday we had orientation at the Livada office and then a tour of town with Bruce (the founder of Livada). Later we went to real (a store like a super target) and then to Bruce's house for dinner. Today, Saturday we got to go visit the orphanage in Ludus and the BABY HOSPITAL were I'll be spending my summer. It was super fun to finally see it and hold the babies!! There are about 6 orphan babies at the hospital and three there with their mothers. There are also about 6 toddlers there too. It's going to be amazing, I'm so excited to be here! The travel wasn't even that bad, once I had a shower and a good night's sleep I was doing just fine. Everyone's excited that we're here to help them out. Tomorrow we'll be going out to Camp Vecta where they will hold the summer camp this year and help set-up tents, we have to set-up 16 tents and they each take 8-10 people 2-3 hours to set-up. We will be setting-up at camp all week. On Monday I have to go get my medical tests at 7am in order to be able to work at the baby hospital and then I'll have a Baby Hospital orientation. I think that brings everyone up to date. I have new pictures on the photo album site of the town and house. I'll talk to you all later! Miss you!

Thanks for the pictures Heather. It helps to get a feel for where you are. I'm glad everything is going so well. Will you be able to take pictures at the hospital?
