Mark's African Adventure

We have seen a few of these cuddly guys in our house. The gardener has also found some under some rocks. My mom found one walking across the floor by the dinning room table.They have a really strong sting from their tail, so you don't want to get stung by one! They are pretty shy and stay under rocks and dark places.

I've been enjoying looking at all the new things, like new bugs, new towns and villages that the Africans live in, and I like all the different kinds of animals that are around. So far, I've helped by taking the clean clothes down from the line outside, shining the light on the path at night while we walk so that we can see snakes before they see us, and eating all my mom's cookies. Friday we are starting to go to a Christian school in the village to help with English classes, crafts and games. We are going to do this every Monday and Friday afternoon. On Tues and Thurs. afternoon, we are going to play soccer outside our home with any of the village children that are interested. After that, we usually jump in the pool quickly to cool down before supper. That's all for now!
