Half term Feb. 4-5, 2013

Hello all,

This Monday and Tuesday was our first half-term of the term.  It went pretty well. The weather was perfect on Monday, but Tuesday started with rain in the morning.

We had a lot of fun.  The day starts with free time at the playground and the kids all get some candies, then we head down to the river for swimming and more playground time.  Here's some pictures of some kids playing.







Then we had lunch at the river.  Nshima is always a treat for the kids.  Not so much for me, I skip the nshima and get rice instead.  For dessert we had guava, mango, and bananas. Here's some pictures of the food.





And we rinse our dishes in the river:



Tuesday was rainy in the morning so I think the kids just played in the dorm. Some were rollerblading in the hall.  Then I played soccer-baseball with the senior kids (Grade 5-9).  It was good fun.

In the evening after supper the ids watch a movie for about 1 hour.  They've been loving the new Tom & Jerry episodes we have. It's also funny to watch them watch it :)

Well that's all for now.  Cya!
