Hayley- Let's go fly a Kite

Let's go fly a kite!




This morning I went to a kite making class with my host mom and my 8 year old host brother. It was very fun. I'm not artistic by nature, so I contented myself with drawing a large red "W" on my kite. There were several inquires as to the meaning of "W", to which I explained I'm from Wisconsin.

After finishing, we walked to a park to fly our newly made kites. It was a nice windy day, excellent for flying kites. Wind does have its drawbacks though, and soon we were all cold and very ready to walk home and eat a hot lunch!

My host mom helped me a lot to prepare and practice beforehand, which made me feel a lot more confident :) The photo is from one of the internat...

Hayley- Quick Update

Quick update Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers; this afternoon I made it back to my host family's house. Getting ready to head to bed after a very long day (didn't go to bed last night, but managed to get a 3 hour nap this morning).
