Christmas is almost here. And Christmas at Akany means singing, dancing, laughing, gifts and eating. The feasting starts tonight. Thanks to generous donors the children are able to get a very special and very delicious meal. Having a feast takes work, but work is not a problem the staff, children and volunteers spent today washing, peeling, cutting, frying stirring.

More about the celebration tomorrow, so please check back in. And don't forget to click below to see all the photos.

Ripe tomatoes at Christmas is a lovely treat.

Happy staff and girls frying up chicken legs for the evening feast.

It takes many hands to make a lot of little tomato slices.

Taking a break from the prep work to enjoy the weather and the swing.
