Off to Bodhgaya
Hi to All Again,
*
I’m off to Bodhgaya, this Sunday coming… 2 and a half days away. Many, Many, thanks to Allison and the big hearted staff at the ATO Townsville, who got together and made little bags of thread and beads, for the girls. Also dug through their jewelry boxes and gave us, so many beautiful earrings, necklaces, hair brushes,
new headbands, hair clips, nail polish, lipstick and bracelets. Such a small, inexpensive present makes an incredible impact on these young girls. After the rare gift of an education, these additional gifts make our ‘Kusala Sponsored’ Boys and Girls feel absolutely fantastic. Tomorrow the ‘Boys’ from the ATO Townsville, are going to bring in cricket balls and cricket shirts…. Now, I just need a sponsor for myself to get the ‘container’ back to Bodhgaya………… Nah just Kidding, the boys from the ATO, where Allison works, have already come through with 3 cricket ‘training’ balls….. Well done, I will just buy some cricket bats from Gaya(the nearest major town), then, I might be able to teach the local Indian community, How to play Cricket???!!! Haha.

With my Kindest Regards
