Back to School and a few other tidbits

One day between hither and yon we stopped at a Christian school that our travel agent has adopted to help sponsor.  We all brought back packs full of school supplies to give to the children at the school.  They were waiting for us and put on a little show in appreciation for our contributions.

Lessons tacked up on the wall of the school room.  On our drive to the school we had a few rest stops to use the restrooms and take some photos.

Cindy, you don't look like you are too sure about the crocodile! What an interesting trip!

Neither of us liked the crocodile! It tasted too fishy. (And we usually like fish.)
