Today we continued to prepare for our journey. We went to the reservation in hopes of finding a gift to give the orphanage director and our guide. I found a couple of books and a couple of dream catchers. One book is about Native American tales from the northwoods. It tells the stories that have been passed from generation to generation of Native Americans. The second book is titled "The Iroquois" and discusses the different nations of Iroquois such as the Saint Regis (our local), Seneca, Onondaga, Onieda etc and their lives and struggles in the early nineteen hundreds. I hope they find it interesting and informative and hope they share this with their family and friends. I think they will see how some of their cultural beliefs are similarly shared by others as well.
Tomorrow is Easter Sunday. We are planning on sharing it with family and watching the little ones go nutso from having a "sugar high".
Happy Easter everyone!!!!!
