Maruges' chickens |

Tearing out the old wall on Maruges hut |
I woke up earlier on day three and Maruge was already awake. Like the morning before we made tea and ate some breakfast. Because there was no school today we had to decide what to do. Maruge said that one of the walls on hut was falling apart so we fixed it up. I completely took the wall out by kicking it from the inside and then we rebuilt it with wood and rocks. I tied rope around the wood to keep it together. Then we used some mud that had a lot of clay in it so seal the wood. I drank a bunch of water after and ate some crackers. After that I went over to a creak that is near by and cooled of in the cold water. I swam around for a while with some of the other children and then I went back and ate a late lunch. I was really tired from working all day so I decided to take a short nap. I woke up at about five in he after noon and went outside to find Maruge. I found him feeding the chickens and I helped him. After we finished feeding the chickens we went back inside and made a simple dinner. I read for a while after dinner and then got ready for bed and we went to sleep. It felt good to lie down but it took me a while to fall asleep because my muscles were so sore. I finally fell asleep and it felt great.

Shops in the city |
 |
The wooden dragon I liked. |
When I woke up on morning four even more sore than the night before, and I was starving. Then I got dressed and ate breakfast. Maruge said that we could go to the city today and he could show me all the cool shops. Some people Maruge knew said that they would take us to the bus stop in their van. When we got there the bus was just about to leave, but we made it just in time. Then we took the 30-minute bus ride to the city. I was amazed with all the interesting shops. There was so many cool wood carvings and delicious fruits. We bought some things to eat back at the house and looked at lots of other things to. I saw an amazing would carving of a dragon holding a jewel. I but sadly did the stupid thing of not getting it. After looking shops we went to eat lunch. We ate at this really cool little barbecue place. I got two pieces of beef, two chicken, and two pork. There was a bunch of delicious dipping sauces and I liked them all, except for one. I dipped a piece of chicken in a greenish red colored sauce and I had a hard time not throwing up. I didn’t want to be rude so when the person running the place asked how the sauce was I said it was great. After lunch walked around for a little while longer and then we went back home. The bus was late so we got home late and we ate a little dinner and just went to sleep.
When I woke up on Monday morning (day five) it was boiling hot and I could barley stand the walk to school. After what seemed like a year of walking we finally got to the school. They day just breezed by for me because the school is first grade learning. We did some work and than ate a little lunch, then we did some more work and went home. We got a van ride home from Maruges friends and I was glad because I was tired. When we got home Maruge suddenly said “aaaaa!” “we have to go we have to go!” “go were” I said. “To dinner!” “What diner!” I replied. It turned out we had been invited to dinner in the city by the teachers. We got dressed in some nice clothes and got a ride to the city. Then we ran to the restaurant and found Jane at a table. When we sat down I found out it was a Chinese restaurant and I became very excited. We ordered lots of delicious food and I tried some of everything. After diner we took the bus ride ho
