Wow! So much has happened since my last update. Last week at
school, one of the first grade teachers was out for the whole week. Nataly
(another MSU student) and I found ourselves teaching the class by ourselves all
week. Holy craziness!! We survived and what an experience to have under our
belts! This week, I spent a day with a 4th grade class, a
kindergarten class, and a 3rd grade class- helping the teacher this
time, not teaching alone!
This past weekend, the whole group met up again and headed
to Langebaan, a town right on the water. We stayed the weekend at a bed and
breakfast called Friday Island located directly on the beach! The weather was
absolutely beautiful and we spent the weekend playing in the ocean, exploring
the coast, star gazing on the beach, and eating delicious food! We also visited
a San village where people live in huts, make their clothes from animal skins,
and start fire with sticks. While on the walk through the village, I saw a
ZEBRA IN THE WILD!!
Tonight the group is getting together to learn how to play
cricket. This should be very entertaining…
Tomorrow, assuming the weather forecast stays true (sunny
and 67!), we’re headed to climb Table Mountain. FINALLY!
