Which way to Velody's House?

Were about 2 hours out of Zimba on what looked like a goat track, it felt like 10 hours, through ravine's, creek beds, and muddy wash outs. We had already visited 5 sponsor children, 1 was Claudia and Moe's (but that is a story in itself, so will have to come later) it was getting on to 4pm (dusk comes and then darkness by about 6) when off a track to the left, we see these little white arrows nailed to the trees. The second arrow said Velody, on they went up the hill, every tree containing one of the little arrows, until we got to the top of the hill and there, in such sweetness was the little drawing of a boy, and the name Velod. He was making sure I didn't miss his house! Come, come this way my sponsor...Velody lives here, they were telling me. And there he stood, with a shy smile, twinkling eyes, the sweetest little boy! He was even wearing the same shirt as in his sponsor package picture, which I have to think, may be his only shirt (especially after meeting the other children that day) When I told him how much I loved his signs, as we first sat down, he got up and ran away. Oh no, I thought! What have I said? Back Velody comes and hands me the drawing, done in carcoal from the fire I might ad, and hands it to me. I pressed it to my heart. We later noticed that the drawing had imprinted itself on my skin above my top. What could have been more precious?

I'm not going to tell the whole story yet, as It's 11:30 pm. I've been trying to get onto the mychildsponsorship.ca page and upload my blog, but can't seem to post, so wanted to get another quick one on here before I hit the sack. Yes, that's right me in bed at that time but I've been getting woke up at 4 am (thanks to Chuck the local Rooster outside my room; so haven't had much sleep this past week. Actually I'm having a hard time not seeing double!

Here are some of the ideas I have for other postings I'm thinking of, and all of these are just one day ideas:

Utanat is the Man

We got chicken (Claudia this one will before you)

Kill Chuck (the Rooster) or Chuck must die!

Keep watching, they may not be here till I get back, the internet here is so slow, but boy the stories and experiences I have to tell will be worth it, even if as little long winded.
