HAMBURGERS, CAKE, and ICE CREAM!

Woke up this morning and went back to regare to PAINT! I now consider myself a professional painter, I have been painting the past 4 days. It's been good though, today I got to talk to a guy who works with the church who has been helping us paint and just talking about the difference of life in Africa. Talking about our customs compaired to theirs, the different roles men and women have in every day life. Painting is a "man's job" in Africa, while women just cook and take care of the babies, but things are slowly changing and being influenced by our western culture.
And for lunch we got to have HAMBURGERS! they actually wern't very good at all, but it was a much needed break from sadza. And after lunch we got to do some more shopping, where I got some pretty cool stuff for my family. And after shopping we went back to that coffee shop and had some hot chocolate and CAKE! it was pretty amazing!
From there we made a quick stop before going to an orphanage, we went to this place where they are these HUGE rocks, and so many of them and they are just placed and stacked on top of each other in the weirdest way. No ones knows how they go there, it's the coolest thing EVER. we got to climb them for a while :]
And then we went to Fern Rd. B (the other side of the orphanage we went to on tuesday) and got to sit in there with all the orphan girls and hear some of their stories. They ranged from ages of 2 to like 17. One girl (her name is Precious) was found when she was 4, she had been a victim of human trafficking and was found in a crate. She had been brough over from Congo and they are currently trying to find her mother and get her back to her, but it's not looking like their going to find her. So all the girls sang for us, and we played board games like Jenga and Sorry and made bracelets and sun catchers. It was a great night, just like every other night! Every night is so different at every orphanage, and each one is special in it's own way.
On the way home Glen made a secret stop and him and Jon got out of the car, and wouldn't let us out, and they got us soft serve ice cream! So nice!


P.S. I forgot to mention that yesterday Amanda DeOcampo cut off a chickens head yesterday.... yup, it was pretty gross.

Here are some pictures I pulled off of Dougs facebook....
