3rd at tribal week

This morning I woke up really early cause my heads itchy, i think I'm being paranoid and think I have nits from the girls Lying all over me. We got up and had these savoury vegetable buns and tea for breakfast. Both me and fay have run out of bottled water and we can't drink the water from the well cause well get sick. I tried to translate if we can boil water and then drink it but they didn't understand. We just have to drink tea all the time to stop us getting de hydrated. We took the bus to pre school and had the First two hours again with the kids. We went back over fruit we learnt yesterday and today we decided to teach colours.we used coloured balloons and blew them up and then the kids had to run over to things that were the colour we called out. The excersise went really well and we got them to draw something that symbolised each colour in there book. We had lunch with them (curry and rice) and then we just watched while the kids got taught by the teachers. At 12 we walked home in the burning heat. The walk home is always a killer. I timed the walk exactly 35minutes from the pre school home. We got back to the house and no one was there, the shop was even closed up which I haven't seen before. The bunch of boys were there and me and fay in the shade to try cool down. Usually the lady gives us food after we get back but she wasn't here so we were kind of hungry. We both were craving fruit so we walked round trying to find fruit on the trees. There's a huge mango tree surrounding the house but all the mangoes looked way to unripe. We picked some off he ground but they were hard as. Some boys managed to get us some passion fruit from one of the trees which was delicious! We noticed the coconut tree and because we hadn't had much water today I was craving some coconut water. Fay tried to climb up the coconut tree but that was a fail and eventually we convinced one of the boys to climb up. He was up before I could even take a photo and he brought down 3 coconuts with him. One he had them down we had the dilemma of getting them open. The boys didn't understand but eventually someone came back with a knife and cut the coconuts for us so we could drink the water. I for some reason expected the water to be cold but it wasn't that was a let down. We drank the water cause we knew it would hydrate us. One of the ladies showed up and went and picked a hard mangoe to the point that it's white and hard inside. I know a lot of Sri Lankans eat it hard here so we tried it. At first it's kind of shocking and really sour and then some how you get used to it, it's kind of like eating a sour green apple. we both started to really like it. The grandma finally arrived a couple of hours later and took us to our little shack to have lunch. It was curry and rice that shed obviously picked up in town. She also have us a rambutan which is basically a lychee but they don't call them that in Sri Lanka. After lunch fay went for a sleep ( shit the girl sleeps a lot) and I went and red my book outside. Some of the little girls came and plated my hair and poked my skin and watched it go red and then back to normal colour. It's crazy how interested they are in out skin colour. Later everyone was back at the shop Doing there usual, eating the tobacco stuff and the leave and white stuff as they do. I went and had tea and just sat with everyone. As it got dark me and fay went to the well to wash ourselves. We found the best time to go is when it's just hit dark because then the  people from the road can't see us. Of coarse the little girls came over and watched us. Pulling the the bucket up with the pully is harder than it looks so the little girls pulled our water up for us. I shampooed my hair and put soap all over me and then the girl said "sit" and she dumped the water on me. It was the most refreshing thing ever although it got none of my shampoo out. The girls continued to help us while we all laughed and the girls sneakily stole some of my body wash to make them smell nice. After washing, all the boys were playing cards outside so we went to join. We played trumpts with them and they actually picked it up which was really cool! We played for ages until this family arrived that we'd never seen before. As soon as they showed up the boys stood up Striaght away and gave there seats to them. For the next hour more and more randoms arrived and this one man who was dressed a lot nicer than the others, I mean had shoes and a shirt on, was talking to one of the boys very firmly. Me and fat sat and watched and it was the most intriguing conversation and I had no clue what they were talking about. We had dinner which was again curry and rice and then we went Straight to bed. The heat and minimal water really tired you out. Feel like I'm on survivor lol
