One morning I managed to get up early and visit the market that is held in Ukurumpa twice a week.
I didn't have very much local money (kina) so I had to limit my purchases. So many beautiful bilums and other handmade products.
The teen center wasn't open one morning. My poor bored children had to play games in Townsend. They survived, but only just.
We also had to pack up all our things and relocate to another house for our last night. I checked out the house with the other ladies. The kitchen was smaller, we weren't sure how to host a big dinner there.
Evelyn made some friends at the teen center.
Matthew did too!
At lunch time the kids got picked up and they ate at the conference center. They all prefer to sit in the open back, if they can find a spot.
We taught Allegra how to play go fish. And Evelyn and Allegra made up a very complicated card game of their own.
They had a great selection of games to play.
This one looked too complicated for me.
Taco cat goat cheese pizza was a lot of fun, and more up my alley.
I spent a bunch of time hanging out with the kids, because I had
nothing else to do. Preparing dinner, even for fifty people, doesn't
take much time...and since they weren't my recipes, I really only was
useful for cutting vegetables and washing dishes. The kids were a lot of fun to hang out with. And the ladies who watched over them were nice to get to know.
