My last memories of 2010 are sweet. On New Years Eve, a triathalon and biathalon were held for the children in our village, followed by a picnic.
The older children (ages 5-7) competed in a triathalon (scooters, running, and skipping).
The children (ages 3-4) competed in a biathalon (tricycles and running).
And the winners were...
The games were followed by lounging on Maasai shukas and enjoying a picnic of hotdogs, banana chips, and carrot sticks.
The festivities ended with cups of jello, a new treat for Tanzanians. They thought they could drink it and continued to ask if it would melt.
I love, love, love your creation slide show!! It was so good!! :) (I didn't see a way to comment there, so I just commented on your last entry.)
ReplyDeletePraying that all is well with you. I think of you often--like everyday when I go off the 150B exit because I remember taking you home from our new house the first time. It was the first time I went off that exit, and I thought it was a yeild not a stop. I don't know if you remember or not, but I stopped QUICKLY!! LOL :)
