Shop till you drop

They have a store here, Metro, that is much like a Sam's Warehouse in the States. We went there to shop after our visit with the boys on Monday. It is a very nice place, but you have to navigate it much like Sam's (without the free samples!)There is much to see and not a lot of time to get it all in.

We had a list from the Baby House and the Dawn orphanage. It was fun trying to find the correct sizes of shoes and socks and underwear. The task made more difficult by the fact that we were trying to find them in different colors or styles as well. We managed to find as much as possible in different styles.

You would think that the older teenage girls would ask for pretty shirts or hats, make-up, maybe hair stuff. You would be wrong.

They asked for body soap, shaving cream and razors, personal hygiene products, shampoo, and toilet paper. Basic essentials. That's all. They said they didn't want anything else.

Things that make you go "hmmmm".

till later,
Jackie
