Dear America,
Today was very similar to yesterday: we worked during the day doing various things such as sawing and hammering, and flicking cement on to walls. So far our stay in Oloika has been really special. Out tents are really nice and the food really good. The kids here are amazing. Yesterday all of us pooled some shillings together to help the school’s dance troop get the funding needed to get a bus to go to Eldoret to compete in a country-wide dance competition. Tonight the first home stay is happening, with Sam, Rebecca, and Suzanne (Ms. Fogarty). The rest of the home stays will take place this week. This Sunday the group will go on a game drive (no work because Sunday is Oloika’s day of rest). Emmett has also been playing his ukulele nonstop, so none of us miss our iPods too much.
