July 28 - Kindergarden, Africa Style


While travelling in Africa, I got to see different tribes. Some tribes you felt like they didn't really live there, they just showed up to "work" every day dressed in their "native" attire and then when the tourists left, they went back home to more "normal" lives. Other tribes you really felt like that's how they lived.

Unfortunately, this was one of the former tribes. It was very touristy, a lot of the people knew english and they sold "crafts" that were probably made in China. They took us to their Kindergarden, which was a caged in looking room just outside the main circle. They all lined up for us and then they sang their abc's. All of them very cute and all looked well nourished. Jon and Kate got nothing on these guys when it comes to exploiting kids.. I'm just sayin..
