We visited another colony today. The drive out was nice. Saw the nicest living conditions on the drive out - would be similar to some very small apartment complexes. The homes here are very small. Some are made just of grass. Others are cement. The "lots" I saw for sale were 800 - 1800 square feet - that is for the plot of land on which you then build your house - grass type hut or cement home.
The colony was nice considering the living conditions of the people here. There was one very, very sweet and friendly lady named Maria. She had long graying hair and a big smile. She had no fingers. We passed by her house when we were walking out and she insisted on some of us picking some flowers off her bush and putting them in our hair. Also, one of the kids grandmother's was at this colony. I gave 2 of the rattles Amy gave me to bring to some of the adorable kids at the colony
One of the volunteers, "Birdy", did a cooking class for some of the kids today. They had fun making pizzas and no-bake cookies.
The smiling man with the "balloon" is Annan, our driver. We saw the motorcycle with the cute kids on the way back and took a picture from the van. (thanks to Becky for some of the pictures, as I didn't realize my battery was gone until just as we got to the colony.)
