day 15 and 16

day 15

Yesterday we started our venture to get electronics for the concert we are playing for the woman's prison in Chang Mai on Monday. This is not as easy of a task as it sounds because we need a whole sounds system and every instrument, cable, amp, and everything.. so we went to multiple stores to compare instruments and prices. Yesterday we did not end up buying a thing. After we were shopping most of the day we came back to the house then went to the "wal-mart" type store of Thailand and got food for the lunch of the orphans for the following day. We also ate some cheap yet good Thai food and went home and did a video chat with crossroads for a video, then went to sleep.

day 16

Today we finished our task of getting all of the equipment. We went to a different store where some of David's friends who know music sent us to. This store was super nice, like nicer than stores in America. It was packed full of everything. I think they were surprised when we bought a PA and everything else, but we ended up spending like at the very least 3 or 4 hours in there as the guys all talked to the owner negotiating prices and figuring out what we wanted. We tested guitars and all kinds of things and finally got it all squared away. Soon after this we returned to the orphan home and played with the children. It was the final night of English camp so we played then had a massive dinner. It was a fancy nice dinner with all the kids from every orphanage, all the staff, and all of the team who put on the camp. It was Delicious and very spicy like always. After dinner we had worship then the kids danced for us. We then thanked the team for helping with the camp and gave them gifts. Then they gave the children the gift of ice cream and fire works. It was a good end to a good day. All the kids were very happy and going crazy ha.
