A early start and driving through lots of traffic  was the way we 
started our day. We got through the city into a more country setting 
passing by rice fields until we reached our destination of Balling . The streets were lined with parents and onlookers awaiting our
 arrival. we set up and started our distribution in a school of 1100 
students.
 We finished in good time and were able to talk to volunteers and some 
local people who lived across the street from the school.The Philippean 
hospitality is second to none.
All of sudden we heard motorcycles in the school yard and were told they
 were for us as we were getting an escort to Paridel. The bikes wove 
through the street with us following . We were given a rock star 
 reception as we reached our destination.
We quickly set up and started our task in a basket court with the bleachers full of enthusiastic kids.
