Second day of the community project

Today we went back to the school and started painting the classrooms the proper colours, yesterday it was just white primer but today it was blue and we painted the whole classroom and it looks so great! I love painting and a big blue blob fell on my face haha! There are about four children who live there as their mum and dad were the ones who set it up and they have been playing with us and chatting with us and today Marta (5yrs old) was trying to wipe the paint off my face which was totally cute.

I really wish we could explore here but really there is no where we can go other than this town.

The knee is feeling a bit better, not having my rucksack is helping I think!

My clothes are covered in paint by the way Mum and my hair and Im not sure my hand washing will make it come out. I have blue smurf hands as well.

We also now have a group kitten called Bobby which one of the girls picked up off the street and it lives in the hostel with us. Im not sure how they are going to handle it when we have to leave it behind.

Im sure what Im going to do for the rest of the afternoon, just chill out I think. Id like to do more in the school but the world challenge budget is very messed up so we have no money to buy anything other than paint. The school is very shocking though but it looks better now.

Have a fun weekend everybody, love you xxxx
