Teaching

Today was my third day teaching in the school and apparently, that is long enough to go solo. My teacher that I work with decided to leave after an hour today to go to the lake and relax, leaving me with 38 crazy swahili children. Thankfully, I had a ball (something they have never played with) and crayons (equally rare) to bribe them into behaving well.

The day ended up great at school, and then we took a trip over to the orphanage where other kids from the program work. The place is amazing. It was started by a doctor and his wife from Texas and they are great people. We then took a matatu (small bus) that is meant to hold 11 people but usually holds around 20 to Masai land. We experienced the craziness of the markets. I even bargained successfully!

Anyways, early night tonight. We get up for Safari tomorrow for the next three days.

Update soon!
