Danika- Nov. 22

It is freezing here in Tin in the mornings! This morning we had tea and homemade banana bread for breakfast. Whenever we have tea, we play the sugar cube game. You balance a sugar cube on the rim of the mug and the youngest one there to the oldest pounds the top of the table with their fist, their knee or both. If anyone's sugar cube falls into their tea, the person who pounds it gets a point. When everyone's sugar cube is in their tea, whoever has the most points wins. We spent at least 2 hours drawing out of Paul and Lois' drawing books. They gave me one about how to shade in your drawings in nature. On Thursdays Paul is in a meeting with the old men of their community. They have it right in their courtyard. We went out there for lunch. We sat apart from the men on little stools and ate the rice with peanut butter sauce with our hands. We came back to Orodara with them because they were going to Bobo so we dropped them off at the bus station. We came back to the guesthouse and there were Bala's kids ready to play with us. We took turns jumping on the trampoline and playing marbles while Asher, Kenai, and two boys, Natanael and Elizar kept coming back with live margouillats (lizards) that they had got with their slingshots. They didn't shoot stones, though. They threw the slingshots at the lizards.

 
We went to Grace and Nicodeme's house for supper and we had toe.
