Charity foundations “AYALA” and “DARA”, the organisers of children holiday “Day of smile”, on the eve of the event were watching anxiously the fast changing weather in Almaty. For the third time in a day, weather forecasters predicted terrible weather in time of the holiday. But this year the weather did not disappoint us. Teachers of orphanages told us how upset the children were when on 26th of May thunderstorm stroke. But children were waiting and preparing to the “Day of smile” and apparently asked for good weather from the nature. In the morning of the holiday the sun shone brightly and only several clouds were in the sky.

After greeting speeches of the deputy Akim Mr. Seydumanov, Akim of Bostandyk district Mrs. Amanzholova, General Director of “El-Arna” channel Aigul Mukey and a head of the “Kazakh National Pedagogical University” Mrs. Pralieva our sponsors presented gifts.

Immediately after this all “Fantasy World Almaty” attractions were turned on. For the second time “Day of smile” is held here. We want once more to thank the owners of the park and all the staff for their generosity, kind heart and professionalism. In 2 hours kids raided attractions so much that they almost fell down from the tiredness and excitement. After dinner which was organized for free by restaurants «Palladium», «Barberry», «Bellagio», «Gogol», «Shisha bar», «Mamamia»,”Grilyazh”, «Assorti», «Line Brew», «Marrone Rosso», “Tubeteika”, «Glen pub», an entertainment complex «Esperanza», Beverage manufacturers “Resmi group” and “Tassay” also held a small circus.
