Getting our hands dirty in Tanzania

Hello everyone!

The trip has been fantastic so far! The flight over was long and tiring but it was definitely worth it.

We just finished our community project. We had a lot of fun and got our hands dirty. We built a see saw, a soccer field, a netball field, a swing set, balance beam and a suspended bridge, so there was a lot of hard work going on. It was a lot of fun to be in such close contact with the Massai community. Some girls were even able to stay overnight in a Bommer (a small Massai village) and were able to gain a greater appreciation of the Massai culture. The children were also a lot of fun to play with.

Next up is the Safari which we are all excited for. Luckily we haven't had a lot of trouble with illness. We miss you all and we can't wait to see everyone at Christmas.

Love from,

Rafiki
