Day 57: August 26
On my way down to my center today I passed this group of boys. Check out their wire car! Cars like this are quite common. They use a rubber band or string to connect up the "steering wheel" to the front axle so the wheels can actually turn. Normally the wheels are bottle tops or other pieces of plastic laying around; but these guys used a few old beer cans. Not only is it a build it your self toy, but it's a recycled one. So many great things happening there, I only wish the school curriculum could capitalize on it more. But of course that would just take the fun out of fundisi (SiSwati for learn).
Oh and yes that is a WWE shirt the kid is proudly wearing. On of Americas most influential cultural exports to this area of the world; if you ever don't have anything to talk about with a 5 year old in the township, just ask him who his favorite "wrestler" is.
