Today (Sunday) after a lovely breakfast we said goodbye to the couple from Kent who are going on to Sri Lanka. I believe another couple will be arriving later this morning so we'll see some new faces at lunch or dinner
We went for a walk along the lanes neighbouring our Homestay this morning. As its Sunday the children aren't at school and they were very keen to chat to us.
David made the 'mistake' of giving one young lad a biro after which the boy cycled off into the distance to rally all the village children it seemed. We were mobbed (in the nicest possible way) by kids wanting pens and pencils ... and they were all happy to pose for a few photos so I now have some great ref photos/ideas for future artwork .. and they have pens/pencils for their school work.
This little girl was is so beautiful
and Grandpa wanted to get in on the act too
I know I've lost some of the boy's face in the mirror of the bike but it was the girl in the lovely dress I wanted to capture. their dad owned the nearby snack 'kiosk' and rushed out to give David a couple of toffees!
and the 'four legged' kids as well ... loved the way this one is kneeling down to eat
and this one seemed very curious about what I was doing
Nothing to do with kids at all ... but here's a rather large lizard just emerging from its leafy bed in a pile of old wood.
We have lots of the small lizard/gecko visitors at the Homestay, but this was a monster by comparison
and these are just typical views of the area around the Homestay
