This is the first day right after we "taught" some english at Natete slum. After we taught the actual teacher asked us to take role....... you can imagine how that went!

There is a chess program that was just starting when I went to Uganda in 2008. It started in the slums as an alternate to soccer since in Katwe slum it is hard to find space to play soccer. Today I went to a senior (secondary) school where there are some slum students. The program is so big! One of these girls is named Feona (fee-o-na) and in case you didn't read the ESPN article that was published over a year ago, she went to Russia to compete internationally! She is incredible. Still a young student, from the slums of Uganda, and a top top chess player! What an honor to meet her.

These are a bunch of the children in the village that we went to yesterday. Amanda and I gave them all stickers and played games with them. I don't know what they are doing here... but honestly the didn't smile all the time. We were kinda scary at first because white people hardly visit these areas... Amanda even made a baby cry! But after warming up to us it was very fun.

I wish I had taken all these beautiful pictures... but they are Amandas. (she's kinda a professional, it's pretty nice) So thanks Amanda!

God Bless. I will post later.
