My visit with Maruge #2

Today is Saturday, I could not write yesterday because Maruge and I were so busy all day yesterday, swimming and hiking and when we got back I fell straight to sleep.  Today we are planned to go to see Maruge's school.  We wake up eat a breakfast of goat products and leave on the two bikes Maruge had recently procured.  We rode on a winding, up and down road for about half an hour and then finally we were there!  It was beautiful, well from the outside it was quit plain and actually sort of boring looking, but it was wonderful to see all the little kids running out to greet us.  They were sort of scared of me, but after a while they got used to my white skin.  We went inside the school house and since Maruge was there it was GAME DAY! The kids were so happy,  I knew it wasn't just because they got to play games all day, it was clear that each and every one of them loved him.  We played many games.  I did not know how to play any of them so we stuck to the more basic ones so I could play too.  A lot of them involved shouting.  When it was time to go all of the kids held on to our legs so we couldn't leave it took a lot of persuading to at last break free and ride off on our bikes.  When we got back to Maruge's house we milked his goats and went to sleep.  I was excited for the next day of fun.
