From Chennai Photo Album 2009 |
Most of these children came from parents who themselves are uneducated (i.e., no schooling at all!) and 271 of the children were coastal children who would have suffered the effects of the tsunami.
And as possibly everywhere in the world, kids are kids. Some getting their photos taken smiled, some giggled, some cried, some engaged us with their knowledge of English, some were stoic and some were really interested in eyeing that bedkit, knowing it would be theirs before day's end.
All in all, a great day, despite the 34 degree temperature.
