Fun Facts from Bukoba

Mambo!

Today we had our last computer class at Bukoba Secondary School. The girls have improved so much and its great to see them using all the computers. We are hoping to meet with the teachers next week to follow up on how the computers can be used for the classes. Yesterday we bought school supplies for Tumaini, which is th e street kids center we visited earlier this week. We basically bought out the whole bookstore and got 200 noteooks, 200 pens, gluesticks, scissors, chalk, calculators and protractors. We are all really excited to go back and deliver the supplies to the kids!

Last night Bahati (who makes us chips mayai and is our guard) brought us a bunny. Apparently he brought it for us as a new pet, so we made it a little cage (out of a cardboard box?). Bahati drops by to bring the bunny food--he doesn't really speak English so its as mystery to all of us how long (and why) we haev the bunny but we named it Miko (which means allergy in Swahili because Kevin is allergic).

We also learned how to dance African style last night at the pub. We all danced with our friends from town and our guides. Its was a great time!

Hope you are all well back home!
