Huge accomplishment again today! We succeeded in bringing together 319
children for 1 photo. The students thanked us with several songs of
appreciation.
On our way home we stopped at a SET (Support Education Togo)
school. It was a beautifully coloured 3-classroom
building complete with a principle’s office.
There were 2 outdoor classrooms, light and breezy, but, as school was
over for the day, these classrooms were taken over by an extended family of
goats.
On our route back to Lome on the ‘farm track’ our hearts
were warmed as we passed several dozen children and their families with their
bed kits and mattresses, slowly making their way home, on foot, waving with –
to a child - HUGE smiles, relieved that the promise of a Canadian ‘cadeau’ was
actually fulfilled, and in hand.
