afternoon in the park

The power went out yesterday which makes teaching computers at our school a bit challenging. After having some interesting discussions with his students while waiting for the power to return Jason decided it was not coming back anytime soon and so he let class out early. He came home and I was itching to get out of the house; too many kids around hollering "Mama Annikah", too much noise, too much laundry to be folded, and no fans. We decided to flee our house and check out a music concert at the main park in town put on by a NGO. The kids came from different schools on the island and played instruments, sang, and danced. Anni decided she wants to play the violin when she gets bigger. It was a beautiful day and after listening to some music, we wandered around, Anni hit the park, and we ended the day by grabbing some street food. We enjoyed just being here and being together (plus any excuse for me to take pictures).

old colonial building in town that is now a museum


Evy enjoyed the music

and Anni could not get enough of the park. She can climb all the way to the top by herself!


check out that bike riding skill! Time for her own (great timing for her 4th Bday)

they even had a little push chair for Evy!

and she loved it!

Anni sipped her fresh sugarcane juice while we waited for Papa to get our fresh fish and spicy soup

doesn't this make you want to visit? Karibu Sana!!!
