This was James, he had been to school, studied and now lives in his village making improvements and helping his people. He was so tall! I kept telling him that Kobe Bryant would soon be done :) he just smiled
The women do all the work- imagine- The huts take 3 weeks to build on average.
We watched them start a fire with sticks- no stones with sparks.
Towards the end I saw some of the men practicing their bowing skills away from the village- well being from Idaho I could not resist showing them my "bowing skills". 3 years of watching of my scout brothers, yeah, you better believe I hit the target. They were all laughing and so impressed. It was such a highlight.
Katie, you have some amazing pictures and experiences!! I must say I am very jealous!! You look wonderful, gorgeous as ever. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like such an amazing adventure...I am jealous you were able to hang out there and see so much of Africa! I love it that you shot the bow!!! U are amazing Mrs. Crofts!
ReplyDeleteSo this guy came into Happy Sumo today and scolded me for filling up his water glass because he said I was wasting it, and in Africa they don't have water so I should be more grateful/careful about my water usage:) I'm not sure if I believe him 100%
ReplyDeleteI love your blog. Your pictures are amazing.
Katie, Katie, Katie, it looks like you are having a great time. I can't believe you are so far away. It's so crazy! I think that is great what you are doing.

Well I hope everything is going well hope to talk to you soon, if you get an itch to look at my blog you are more then welcome to.
