Friends Are Friends Forever

Some of my awesome friends came for a visit!
We went on a canal boat tour in downtown Richmond. We had fun with "Cotton" our boat captain. 


How would you like to spend 27 hours in a 3x2 wooden crate? 
In 1849 Henry "Box" Brown, a slave in Richmond, VA mailed himself to the Philadelphia office of the Anti-Slavery Society and was freed!

East African Meal

We had an awesome African meal which included many different foods that I don't know the names of. We had beef, beans, greens and fruit. We also had pop, which is called all different names depending on where you go in Africa - we shaped it into a spoon to eat since we were not allowed to use silverware. We also had chipatas which is a sort of bread that looks like tortillas. We had fun helping to prepare everything. 
This is a picture of Team #3!

Ultimate...

...Frisbee
I got some ups, not really but I've enjoyed trying to play. This is how we spend the little amount of free time we have after being in class all day.
