The Park

The kids at school informed us yesterday that they had exams this week and so we are letting them study and we have the week off for other things. Today one of the Baha'i teenagers came by because we had agreed to tutor her in math. It's been a long time since Nadim and I did trigonometry (cos, sin, tan, sec, cosec, etc). Nadim's memory seems to be slightly better than mine, but the two of us muddled through and managed to be of some help to the poor girl. I am so glad that I don't need to be doing those tests again! We spent about three hours with her this afternoon, but the time passed quickly. She'll come back tomorrow morning and Nadim will help her some more while I do school work with the girls.

We went to the park, in the early evening. There were lots of kids playing around. The girls seemed to have fun on the monkey bars. There were some boys playing soccer in bare feet in the patch of dirt next to the park. I snapped a few shots and they got pretty interested in us. Eventually they came over to introduce themselves. Nadim was a little cool to them because he figured they were using their local language to make some rude comments. I figured they were just being adolescents.

We locked our keys in the common rooms of the Baha'i centre, so now we are waiting for Vijay to return from his class so we can get our keys, get into the kitchen and make ourselves a late dinner!
