Today I played soccer with my new African friends. While we were playing, Hope Solo and Kia came to play with us. Yeah, THE Hope Solo! Next we went to the Hector Pieterson museum. There we went on a scavenger hunt. Later, we went to Nelson Mandela’s house. Yep, THE Nelson Mandela! Afterwards, we went to this restaurant called Nando’s, and the food was awesome! Lastly, I got some candy and left to prepare for the next day. My favorite part of today was the food and going to Nelson Mandela’s house. This is what I did today. Starting tomorrow, I will have 6 days until I go back to America. Man does time fly! By: Koby Smallwood
Today was the best. I had gone to Nelson Mandela’s house. I found out the Nelson Mandela’s daughter is married to a prince. I also found out that her husband father had 85 children. That’s a lot! - Tu’ziah Hall
Today we played soccer with Hope, and Kia. We had so much fun! They taught us how to play soccer. We tried to kick the ball in the goal and Hope blocked it. Then we had to dribble the around in circles. By: NaTia Bland
