Sun 25th March


A celebration day for our hosts as their youngest daughter’s school had an open day.  It is a boarding school for children as young as three!!!!  There are as many as 100 children in one dormitory and they have to get up at 5am! Families came to the school with food and shared it with their children and others whose parents hadn’t come.  Maria Gloria came home and we had a feast for lunch of chapaties, pork, rice and curried soup.  The chapaties were made in the morning by a local man and it was amazing to watch him.  Having done it for many years he made them with such ease and rhythm.  He is going to give us a lesson sometime.
