Visit to the School


During my three days at site visit I was able to meet many people.  I met the Alkalo, Imam, Tradition Birth Attendant, teacher from the local school and many others.  One day I decided to walk to the school to check it out and some of the children were on there break eating their snack.  I introduced myself to them and tried to speak to them in the local language, I told them to sing and dance and they did.  I decided to whip out my camera to snap a photo and the whole crowd went crazy pushing and shoving to get in the picture knocking eachother down, it was hilarious.  I showed them the photo and then decided to go on my way home.  I told them goodbye but somehow they didn’t get it because they all followed me home singing and dancing all the way to my compound.  I arrived and sat in front of my house thinking of a way to get rid of them.  I kept saying you guys need to get back to school but they just stood there and starred at me.  Finally one of my host brothers came out and yelled at them to leave and they all squirmed out back to school.  It was funny.  Kids you just got to love them.
