Olivia's Reflection

On Wednesday morning we went out on a bike ride through another village. On one of our stops we stopped at a school. The school was so cool because we got to hang out with all these little kids running around. It made me so happy to see all these little kids so excited to see us. They were so cute and loved all the attention. They were laughing and running around wanting their pictures taken. It not only made my day to go to the school but it made my trip.

That evening we went to another school but that one was a high school. At the high school they put on a show for us with singers, dancers and games. Then we got to talk with some of the students and they were so excited that we were there but they were so nervous to talk with us. The students kept giving me compliments and wanting to take pictures. Then I was talking to these girls and they wanted to touch my hair because it was so different than theirs. It was definitely one of the best days so far on this amazing trip.
