Water Walking

Today in the early morning a group of 6th and 7th graders set out on a quest! There goal was to take as many gallons of water as they could carry and walk it one mile up to Santa Barbara Middle School. Some didn't wear shoes, some had 10 gallons, other had 2 gallons. The goal of this was to try to feel what its like to do it every day like some people in Africa do. Some people in our group are even taking the amount of water they carried and are using only THAT for the whole day! Overall it was a quite fascinating experience.







Quite different aren't they?

My Visit With Kevin Day 2

Today when I woke up I went to take a walk around the pool in my hotel. While I was walking I looked over to the pool and saw a huge ALIGATOR!

I was super scared and ran inside and never came out. For breakfast I met up with Kevin and we ate at this good pancake place. After breakfast we went to his office in his school for me to look around. I saw that there was a lot of heat posters. I hate the heat! When I walked around the halls of this school I found a group of people that liked the Knicks!! So I hung around with them for a day because they were awesome! But I noticed that everyone was in some kind of group and no one was alone. Later that day I had to go because I had to get back to Santa Barbara tomorrow for a math test!

My Visit with Kevin In Florida day 1

Today I landed in Miami, Florida to be greeted by a smiling face, it was KEVIN!. We exchanged hellos and went out to get some lunch because it was 12:00 and we were both hungry. We had some burgers and fries and it was good!

Then Kevin took me by his school for a quick tour because I was tired from the trip. When I was touring I thought everyone looked happy and it was great. They all looked about my age, and when I asked one of them what there favorite sports team was they said Heat. And we had a big debate about it. I was tired from the jet lag so I went to my hotel and went to bed.

My visit with Maruge Day 5

Today I am on flight American Airlines flight 201 flying from Kenya to LAX. Maruge made me a walking stick was a souvenir. I learned you don't need a lot of stuff to have fun and learn in school. The kids here looked like they were having more fun then the kids at my school. I am glad to get back because it was SO hot in Kenya. Well my I think I am going to take a nap now because I am very TIRED.
