HOWZIT!!

A great day of sight seeing! Thanks for all the comments everyone, its nice being able to hear from you all. It makes it seem like I'm not so far away. I miss teaching and seeing you all every day but I am learning and seeing so much!! We had a great home cooked meal tonight. We went to a local family who hosted us for dinner. It was a nice way to end a day of sightseeing. Want to know what I saw? Just take a look!

What awesome flora and fauna, Miss Darcy! I am slightly jealous. The national flower is incredibly interesting. Is that a tortoise? Hope to have the 3rd grade at B/DES check this out tomorrow morning. Thanks for sharing your trip with us!

Jambo, (with the help from Mrs. McGreavy) It looks real good, what you were eating. The pictures were awesome. Could you try to get some more pictures of other animals for us, like a monkey? What type of flower is that? Let us know when you have a hamburger and DDP. Are you still having fun. We are missing you too. Have you seen lots of different clothing there? Have you had any rain yet? It rained Thursday, Friday and today. INSIDE RECESS!!!! Is everything all unpacked? How hot has it been, not hot here. Have you given out any bracelets? Talk to you tomorrow. Mrs. Hill's and Mrs. Littlefield's classes.

Darcy,

Love the pictures, they look like postcards. Whats DDP in your reference to water? The stadium looks better than the township, where are their priorities? I hope you brought some good sunscreen. I also think it is interesting that your hotel windows do not have screens because there are no bugs!! NO BUGS!! I'll take a lizard over bugs. I also like the pictures of the local people.

See ya soon
