Day 3: The BEST Blog ever!



We started our day off by making the best breakfast ever consisting of sausages, eggs, perfectly browned toast and many other delicious goods. We then made our way to Butswana for the Women's day March. We decorated ourselves with permanent markers that are proving difficult to wash off. We walked from Butswana to Turkey with the leaders holding the banners we made. It was  long journey but a worthwhile one for a worthwhile cause.
Basadi Tlang maatla. We then had a talk about women's rights which was enriching. After the talk we played games and sang songs with the kids. Duck duck goose has never been so fun!

We then all hopped on the bus and headed to the Bakery. We were treated with freshly baked cakes and bread. We were shown how they make the bread and we then demolished a few loaves after.

We then seperated to our respective camps and began our work.
At Butswana we ate the food they prepared for us. We then started on our weather chart together with the leaders. We managed to paint an entire white square and then it was time to go home. We ran to the bus in the pouring rain and headed home.

At Worcester, we traced the world map, at the old center, to perfection, only to realize it could not be transfered onto the new wall. The ever determined Worcester group made a new, but equally brilliant plan. We decided to draw a map of Africa instead. The ridiculously artistic Hannah Human managed to draw an accurate, to scale, image of Africa, FREE HAND! #betterthanallofus What started as a drizzle, ended as a huge torrential downpour, that National Geographic would be proud to report. This caused us to be stuck inside the shelter for longer than we had hoped. We were all huddled in a small circle on the floor, and a magical being pulled out an iPod and Shox. We jammed in our little cirlce. Innocent Isi attracted the not-so innocent Innocent. With music and dancing the time passed quickly.

At Mankgonyane they started to garden and despite many laughs they managd to plant lots of seeds.

We returned home for dinner and went to bed.

 (That's not us :/ )
 
 
Love you lots xx
