Saturday July 2: Day 4
After a rough night’s sleep we walked to Kigato village where Laura has been working with a group of girls. They have learned to make baskets and mats from traditional artists. Today mom got to teach them how to make books.
Laura led everyone in some yoga and then the girls had fun decorating their books with stamps and paint. The kids were also thrilled with the stack of books we brought for them from mom’s friend Marianne. I read several to the younger kids who weren’t involved in the book project.
We left the school and had a delicious lunch prepared by Laura’s friend who lives in Kigato with the girls. It was the best food we have had yet. After lunch we headed out in a taxi van for a five hour drive to Jinja on the Nile river.
