We just returned from escorting approximately 110 pounds of supplies for the CSI orphanage on Roatan. WOW!!!! Definitely the highlight of our 10 night cruise.....The kids were delighful, well-mannered, clean, and super friendly..Brad and Debbir have done a marvelous jobdown there. The ship was very accomadating in helping us to get all the stuff (two big suitcases, 2 knapsacks and a duffle bag) off the ship without being hassled by the local authorities.
In addition to the stuff (some condements, diapers to maxi pads and clothing etc.) we took 19 personal gift bags for each of the children to receive right away (the stuff we took was going into storage for the summer when there are fewer cruise ships). You would have thought we were Santa Claus come early!!!
I can't recommend this experience highly enough. If you don't do it for them..DO IT FOR YOURSELF!!!! And please whatever your conceptions are, realize that these children have it sooooo much better than if they were home. As Nike would say, "JUST DO IT!"
