The last day of camp at Kamwama went really well. We taught the kids how to play ultimate frisbee, did a little HIV teaching, and then planted some trees around the school.

The kids get SO excited when you take their pictures. They LOVE to see themselves in the camera afterwards.
Came back and the group went out for indian food at a restaurant downtown called “the Hut”. I have no idea what we ate, but it was all vegetarian and ALL tasty.
