Danika- Nov. 28

This morning we went to our old cartier (neighborhood) to buy fish doughnuts. We tried to get gallettes too but we came too late, she was already finished. We had neighbors that we had visited the other day but the kids were still at school so we said hi to them and as we were going to Mimi and Alima's house to pick them up, we passed a galette lady. We got e few and tried them but none of us liked them except Kenai who would have eaten them all if we hadn't given them to Mimi and her mom but they said he could have some and he took handfuls at a time. We drove to the forest and payed to get in and then walked as far as the lake. We passed a river which you had to jump onto rocks to get across and some statues of animals and finally got to the lake. We looked for the crocodiles and finally saw one as he was swimming across to the land on the other side but when he got there we didn't see him because he blended in with the dirt. We only got the camera out by that time but we took a picture anyways and it looked all blurry and it actually turned out pretty good on the computer.
 
 We saw two more crocodiles after that and then started walking back when we saw a bunch of ant-lion holes. Mimi stirred one up with a stick and she found an ant-lion. It was very small and ugly. Alima stirred one up and found a huge one but it was still very ugly. I started walking on, not that it was boring or anything but I wanted to carry on. As I was walking I saw a huge millipede!

When we got back in the car we dropped off Mimi and her mom and went to the Banazaro's for lunch. We had toe.
 
After lunch Esther, Grace and I started walking to Elizabeth's house while the others loaded onto two motorbikes drove by Rebecca and the other by Rhoda. When we got to Elizabeth's house, she served us bean cakes with tomato sauce. It was Elizabeth's birthday party.
 
We drank bissap which is a strong red African punch and then Rhoda and Esther left and we called a taxi. Shortly after the taxi called to let us know that he was almost there so me and Elizabeth hopped on a moto and went to the highway to bring him to her house. When we brought him there we headed home just when Brigitte and Simone came. Simone was going to braid my hair. I had pizza and mangoes for supper while she was braiding. Kathe came later but Simone said that she wouldn't have time to do hers so she went home. She finished at about 7:20 and she had started at 6:00.

Ebenezar also came to take her hot chocolate and she went home.
