UGA student visits with children in Nepal

daniel-with-the-light-for-nepal-children2Daniel Armstrong, son of Deanna Armstrong with the Forsyth County chapter, is pictured to the left with children in Nepal.  An email from his mother reads:

This picture was taken at the Light for Nepal Children orphanage when he was in Nepal.  We’d sent over a bunch of UGA hats for the kids - they really like them and they look so cute in them!  He was in Nepal for 6 weeks and had an incredible time from riding elephants to trekking to Mt. Everest Base Camp to living at the orphanage for the last couple of weeks.  He has a blog but he hasn’t finished updating it yet as it was really hard to access the Internet over there and very slow (www.ltdantheman.wordpress.com).  He’s a counselor at the Dawg Adventure Camp for the freshman right now.  He’d love to go back to Nepal.  The kids really miss him.  A couple of the older ones walked to an Internet cafe and called him a couple of days after he came back and told him the younger ones really missed him.
