Thank you to Mrs. Margerum’s 3rd graders for collecting so many totes, and to the 6th graders and Mrs. Zuchowicz for writing notes to Africa. You all are the best. Here are some photos from my visit today to give you your notes from your penpals in Africa.
In East Africa there is no Fall, Winter, Summer or Spring. Just rain, or no rain. Right now, March – May is the ‘long rains’ season. Many roads are impassable and there is a higher risk for malaria so there are less tourists. I love imagining the wildlife having the parks to themselves without vehicles and tourists. This photo was taken last month by Gene Tremblay who was a participant on the photo safari I designed for the Jackson Hole, WY photographer Henry Holdsworth. It was one of the first rains of the season in Tanzania.
Thank you Washington school 5th & 6th graders and their teachers, Mrs. Bluestein and Mr. Riley for participating in the Notes ‘N Totes project. You guys are awesome. Here are some photos.
