Sanele and Sbusiso have been staying with us and the fun never seems to stop--it's like Groundhog Day. After a big experimental breakfast where we continued to learn what they like to eat (no, it's not chocolate ice cream), Sanele and Sbuiso tried their hand at jumping on a pogo stick.
We then had enjoyed a lovely mass before heading off to Muir Woods where the sun shone long enough for the boys to hug a redwood and see the tops of some pretty tall trees. We also saw a few coho salmon swimming up stream to spawn.
We were then off to San Francisco headlands for a beautiful view of the city before meeting up with the rest of the group at the Exploratorium.
I enjoyed watching Khaya try to make some big bubbles at the Exploratorium. He was having so much fun, he went into a hall of mirrors to try and clone himself so he could stay a little longer--or maybe it was so the clone could go in the Tactile Dome.
Let's just say, the journey through the Tactile Dome is no longer down my alley, but that's ok since I had a lot of other adults to spend time with while the young and/or more daring ventured in. Hats off to Simangele, Nomusa and Zodwa, you were all braver than me!!!! The children (and John) really seemed to like the Dome.
Not surprising, the boys fell fast asleep last night dreaming of their first day of school. They were up early the next morning in anticipation of a great day at Saint Mark's. Based on the welcoming parade and the assembly in the gym, I bet they have a great day.
