Day 5

hello everyone! So here are some updates: Today is day five!! So much happened today, our friendship with them has build up! Most of us receive letters from our Kipevu friends; I received 3 letters, 2 photos, and a necklace from my them: I was thrilled, because a photo or an necklace means a lot to them, but they are willing to give it out! Also, every students want our phone numbers and emails! So for almost an hour I was sitting down writing. We've all became super stars:D I think today was my best day since my arrival because we've all bonded.

SO FAR

The first day at Kipevu was amazing!!. Before I went, I surely did expect some sort of welcoming ceremony, but I was truly surprised and amazed by what they’ve done for us: as our bus enters the main road to the school, about 400 students from Kipevu stand on two sides of the road welcoming our arrival. I was shocked. We were shocked. The spirit was so strong; everyone was waving at us, smile at us, and expecting us to wave back. What and how we felt like was indescribable.
