"Heart Full of Love, Head Full of Lice"

Abigail coined that phrase to describe her first week of Children's Camp. In that one phrase, she captured the realities of Gypsy Children's Camp from the beginning.

The 51 Apalina children return home on the bus, bringing the 45 children from Gornesti, Glodeni, and Csavas to camp. Zozo and Alina brought the second group. The pictures below are a mixture of the Apalina children's last day and the new group's first days.
