Each day was spent in class. We had an amazing group, who were dedicated to being present and committed to learning the material! However, we did manage to get out occasionally.

Learning from our students!
Last time I was in Arua, I saw women driving motorbikes! Ever since then, I have wanted to learn. So one of the afternoons, when class was over, I convinced them to teach me! Gasper (in the blue shirt) was my primary teacher. He even ran holding the back of my bike! I got the hang of it and only almost killed myself once... this was Wednesday Afternoon.
|
Carol (still) does not know how to ride a bike, but Richard tried to teach her! |
At one point, Joshua got the motor bike and said he would take Carol for a ride. I grabbed the bicycle and went for a ride myself. Then I saw them going, and went very fast... passing them by a mile! On the way back to the compound they saw me in front of them. The spirit of compition got both of them and they tried to race to catch up with me, even though it was hopeless.
This was the outcome...
|
Joshua crashed the motor bike! |
Of course... he managed to tip the motorbike on a challenging turn. So now Carol hates all bikes even more! Haha! You can't see his elbow so well, but it was pretty bad. It required some bandaged for a week or so... nurse Noelle had to step in. Thankfully, I brought my first aid kit! (Never leave it at home when traveling with adventurous boys!)

Josh with local kids |
|
Jump rope... one night me and Joshua went and played pool... the other two were too tired. So they jumped rope instead! |
|
Apparently Bernard is very good at jumping rope! Who knew... |
|
Carol, learning to make Karro in the kitchen! |

She'll be an amazing mom... |

The local kids love the ORA playground! |
