ELA VISITED OLD DEAR FRIENDS

Before Ela left Zaparozhyie, she went to the baby orphanage SOLNYSHKO where she grew up from baby until she was eight years old


Ela spent time with Galina Galkina the director, the woman who was Ela's mama, who cared and loved Ela when she was a little girl.

Also the staff were all happy to see Ela all grown up.

And she visited Babushka Galya, a foster grandma. Here is Ela and Inna

Dear friends,

The other students welcomed Ela and she got to meet them, later they took these pictures.
