Market Day in Ewaso by Natasha NB

Today was a traditional Maa Market day. The whole entire group went first to the Najile Secondary girls school. We got to go on a tour of the school and the dormitories. After the tour we got in to a small pickup truck. We traveled in that to the Owasso market. There we wandered around and saw the G.A.R. program in action. Joshua and my Mom bought a couple of things and the rest of the group bought food. The next thing we did is we went home, But the process was a little longer then expected. First we all got into one of the small pickup trucks and jammed our stuff and bodies into it. Then we had to wait for Joseph and then we had to wait even longer because joseph’s future wife Elizabeth got lost in the crowd. We finally got into the vehicle with about 22 people in the back, three people in the front. That’s is how we travelled from the Owasso market to matt and stephs. But first we had to stop at joseph’s house and drop the food off. but i’m rushing .on the way there I had a couple laughs. Some people we were traveling with were so scared for example Jessie. Her face was so serious and she was saying the most hilarious things ever. It was like that the all the way ‘home’. When we got home we had peanut butter and lentils, rice, green beans,and tomatos and cabbage. For desert we had crackers and lots and lots of popcorn with tons of salt. Yummie yummie.
