This am we went by bike
to a school where we were met by a sea of blue uniformed children out in the yard for their am break
They were so lovely warm and friendly
I was addressed as "blanc" a creole version of "white Man". Not derisive, just very descriptive!
It was just LaFleur and I, the others had stayed back, claiming fatigue, and only on day two! They missed a greatexperience
at the end I started shaking hands and both arms were covered by their hands, very touching
I then had a very short break before the other half of the school came out, another happy couple hundred of smiling faces
fortunately the abs tv team travelling with us caught up with us for this one and even did a short interview. Next stop was a pre school a out 15 wee tots, downshifted big time and even so two Tony ones were on tears, fine once the teacher held them they sang several lovely songs complete with actions at the performance
Calls of "au revoir blanc" echoed as we walked away up the dusty hill. now on a midday break, good to be out of the blistering sun now
had to walk all the back to the Loving Light Hotel in the hot sun carrying all my gear, time to repack now that I've got a couple under my belt
, knowing better what to expect
working on getting some pictures, think there were some good ones today
