We ate our first meal with the locals today. These are bananas. Deep fried. Here she is squishing them flat between 2 pieces of cardboard. Then she would deep fry them again.. Interesante!
Bucket Brigade of the day. no one had to walk more than 1 step;) They were passed quickly down the line. "most" of us work hard, can you spot the slacker?
Rice, some local beans and chicken FEET, can you spot it??!!! oh and fried bananas!
One of the pastors boys broke his arm while playing. I thought his cast was way to white and asked if we could sign it! Onita got out her bag of crayons and us three ladies signed, then the boy in red shirt....but when a little girl was ready to, he said, "no more!"
After taking out our 2 Frisbees and one ball and expelling all the energy Onita, Shelly and I had left, we resorted to coloring. they LOVED it. even the boys. What great care they took in making their pictures pretty! 
Posing in front of ALL the pictures they colored in a short amount of time! They didn't have school today and havn't for a while bc of the drought. No water for bathing, ect. The teacher was here today though so he let us in the school so we could use the desks to color on instead of scrap wood.

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful job you're doing all together.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, some say 'slacker' I say 'morale booster'! Nobody picks on my brother (in-law) but me! OK... that's not true.. have at him!
And OF COURSE Onita is carrying crayons in her bag. Doesn't everyone?
