On Friday we visited a yogurt factory that is about a 10 minute ride away from the orphanage. All the kids ages 6 and up got to go see how yogurt is made. It was actually a very interesting tour and the guide did a great job. He showed us the holding tanks for the milk, the boiling room the mixing room and the bottling room. Then he took us all into the walk in refrigerator where they store all of thier product. It was the biggest refrigerator I've ever been in. However, we didn't get to see the 1600 cows they have for milk and he wouldn't let me take any pictures of the bottling room or the refrigerator, so I was a little disappointed in that. After the tour he gave all of us free yogurt samples, and let me tell ya, fresh yogurt is extremely good. Probably one of my favorite things I've had down here. I also learned that you can buy yogurt straight from the factory, so thats what I did. I bought 2 liters of it and it is delicious. I found out that since all the stores I buy the yogurt from around here don't have refrigerators it turns the yogurt sour after only 3 days...so thats why all the yogurt I have been eating previously is a little acidic.

That would be really cool to watch! And that is great that now you know you can buy your yogurt straight from him. I understand him not wanting you to take pictures but that does stink that you were unable too!
Did the kids enjoy it as much as you seemed to? ha ha!
I am sure they did =]
Very cool! I love field trips! So can you go there any time and buy yogurt?
That sounds like a field trip I would LOVE! Did you know that you can make your own yogurt? They sell the powder here in the states and I think all you need is whole milk. If you want me to send some, let me know and you guys can have a fun craft to do!
Sounds like a fun and random trip! Hope you're having a good week! :)
That is a really cool field trip! Since it is near by I'm suprised you guys haven't been there before. Glad to hear that everyone had a lot of fun!
