The students have had another packed day and are now very tired so I said I would put up a quick blog to keep you posted but they will write at length again tomorrow.
The church service this morning was great. Vibrant and full of joy. The students did us proud with their singing and Chloe F led confidently. Then it was off to the market for keep sakes before the event of the evening. Greater Joy put on a party for us in the church hall. A wonderful spread of food, dancing, African druming and tears when it was time to say our final goodbyes.
Tomorrow we are off to Nsobe Game Park where they will go on a game drive and sleep in some slightly less western accomodation! They will blog more tomorrow. Keep the comments coming, they love gathering in the lounge before bed to hear what has been posted.
Thank you for the blog. It really is the highlight of the evening we start looking from 6 o'clock onwards. Sure enough one of the parents spots it and the Zambia WhatsApp is alive. We love hearing everything that you have done. I can't wait to have you home on Wednesday. It really has been amazing and sounds absolutely fantastic. You have done things we will never do, how cool is that. Sorry Liv I know I'm not supposed to say cool! See you soon x
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post, I was waiting for it!! Sounds like another great day. I'm glad they embraced the singing and worship today. How exciting to still have more to look forward to!!!

ReplyDeleteA trip so full of memories and emotions can only really be wound up with the peace of Nsobe Game Park. I hope you all got up at 5 to watch the sunrise.
ReplyDeleteIt's been lovely reading the blog this week and reminds me of every minute I spent in Zambia 2 years ago. The memories stay with you forever and you'll always look back on your trip with a smile.
Well done to all of you for the work you put in before the trip. Extra special well done to Mrs H for her organisation.
Can you all make sure Baidoo gets back in one piece please.
