| What will she ever do next?? |
We have a lovely shaded, grassy area outside of our hostel building. During the hottest part of the day, we frequently drag out a blanket and rest under the trees (the beauty of the 2.5 hour lunch). However, it is very difficult to do much resting when dozens of schoolchildren are gathered on the other side of the hospital ground's fence, hooting, laughing and yelling.
I felt much empathy for the gorillas at the zoo today as I picked through my rice in the shade. The rice was pretty pebbly and buggy, so I was at the task for quite a while. The kids never lost interest in my fascinating project. Really? Because I know your mom picks through rice at home, too. What could possibly be so intriquing? Then I thought of how we ooo and aah over the poor primates at the zoo…”Mom! Look! He’s eating a banana!” “That is so crazy how he’s just sitting there staring at us.” “Totally adorable! That mom is feeding her baby!”
So, I took a picture of the school kids watching me, which they, naturally, found hilarious.
