SCHOOL FIELD TRIP
Part 1
A few weeks ago the compound school went on a field trip. Not only did just the children go with their teacher, but the whole compound decided to go. There are 37 people and we all had a fun time taking a day off. Miss Rosalie had a break too, since all the parents were along to help supervise.
First we toured the local Coke plant. The modern technology was rather amazing in a country like this. They still use glass pop bottles, but are thinking about changing to plastic. They do realize plastic will make for even MORE trash, while people still recycle the glass ones.

After the Coke tour, we headed for a local park next to Lake Victoria. Impala Park is not only a park but also features a small zoo. There are a few zebras running wild, a lion or two, a cheetah and a leopard, and several smaller animals.


Waiting at the entrance for our tickets.


After the release, the school children headed out to explore.


Checking out the monkeys; afterall aren't they the main source of attention in any zoo?
