a memorable night!

including the elders themselves!
-
besides entertaining them in the common area
-
our job there is to give the whole place a clean
-
their basic grooming are cared for
-
including the washing of their feets...
-
while the rest of us went about sweeping, wiping and mopping the premises
-
but the rewards at the end are priceless...
-
encountering years of dust, lizard waste, dried urine, all packaged with a trademark smell...
-
it's tedious cleaning up a very run down place
-
it's a free old folks home, run purely on donations
-
Day3, old folks home visit in the rural areas
-
we had a rewarding meal at the end of the long day...
