I ate a grasshopper the other day. Disgusting? Just a bit. Pastor Francis brought in a huge bag and dumped a handful of cooked grasshoppers into my hand...after seeing their eyes, antennas, and their bodies, I was about to gag. One of my teammates made me eat it. If I could, I would show you the video. However, internet is too slow so I will just give you a picture of it...
Me before I ate the head...
The bowl of grasshoppers.
Do you see it's eye and wing?? Yeah. I ate that.
Today we worked on getting our projects set up. I am doing the eye and dental camp and then also I'll be working with people with disabilities. Our first dental camp is May 26, and then we have 3 more after that throughout the summer. The people with disabilities, I am the project leader, and so right now all we are doing is just researching what they are doing already and what we can do to help out. I will post more on all that stuff when it actually gets rolling! :)
Saturday, we had some downtime, so we found a soccer ball in the market place and went to the mango trees to play soccer with some of the kids! My goodness it was a blast! :) Ugandans are amazing at soccer. I was getting schooled. :)
My team won though! 5-4! :)
Plus, it isn't easy trying to play soccer in a skirt.
Also on Saturday, that morning it rained for over 4 hours! Which isn't exactly normal. BUT it was nice because then I took a shower! In the rain! :)
On our way to church in Jinja, we crossed the Nile River! :)
I'll be rafting the Nile sometime one of these weekends! :)
Church! :)
Today we danced with the kids outside our gate! :) That was fun. I love the children here. They are the best! :)
Welp that's all for now! It's dinner time! :) Waylaba! (Again, I don't know if that's how you spell it...but tis how you say it:)
