Today, we went to Humble School. The women and Tom threw bricks (I was allowed back on the brick line and didn't drop a brick. Whoo hoo!) Kara discovered that at the bottom of the brick pile is where lizards like to live. One of the local workers did a very admirable job of imitating her screaming and hopping in circles. We also learned that it is true that lizards drop their tail when you grab them by it and that it wiggles for a very long time after it detaches.
Doug visited with his parents, who are with the Anglican Church and just happened to be in Mukono at the same time (isn't that weird?). Pastor Dave also had lunch with them.
Drew, Rhett and Dave Bennett put the finishing touches on the new basketball half court that they have put in for the kids. The kids seemed very excited about that. We also bought rope for the girls so they could play the African-style jump rope game they like to play.
While at Humble, we were informed that the bishop was coming with a team from California, who we were supposed to meet. We enjoyed the children's choir as they performed for the Californians, who were from the Oakland area. Afterwards, we all had lunch together.
Later in the afternoon, Pastor Dave took some of us on a walk through Mukono, which was a very interesting journey.
