Halloechen auch,
heute meldet sich mal die Tatjana zu Wort. Es ist Montag der 3.August und somit der Beginn unsere letzten Woche im Mothers Unite Workcamp und hinter uns liegen ein paar sehr schoene Tage. Am Freitag konnten wie zum ersten mal aufgrund von schlechtem Wetter nicht arbeiten. Diesen Tag haben wir stattdessen damit verbracht ueber die verschiedenen Organisationen zu sprechen, die es in der Community hier gibt, was eine wirklich gute Alternative (weil spannend und informativ) war.
Am Samstag sind wir nach Hermanus gefahren, ein kleines Kuestenstaedchen, 2 Fahrtstunden von hier weg. Allein die Landschaft auf dem Weg dorthin war extrem schoen und mir persoehnlich einige Fotos wert.
Hermanus ist auch als ‘Walhauptstadt der Welt’ bekannt und tatsaechlich hatten auch wir Glueck und bekamen mehrere Wale zu Gesicht.
Den Flohmarkt in Hermanus, auf den wir uns alle gefreut hatten, gab es leider, wegen Bauarbteiten, nur in einer abgespeckten Version. Nichtsdestotrotz sind wir Souvenierjaeger fuendig geworden.
Abgeschlossen haben wir diesen sehr coolen Tag mit einem Braai bei Aisha, der Hostmum von Elida.

Heute morgen gings dann zurueck an die Arbeit. Wir haben die Balken von unserem Adventure Playground mit Schmiergelpapier schoen glatt geschmiergelt und jetzt warten wir nur noch auf die Farbe um richtig loszulegen!

Alles klar meine Lieben,
das wars erstmal von meiner Seite.
Machts gut,
Gruesse
Tatjana

1. 7 of the 9 international volunteers on the top of Table Mountain. It was a exhausting but so funny and beatuiful climbing!

2. This is Tony and Sonia at Fishhook beach. We sat there all of us watching the sunset and talking. I liked that a lot just sitting and relax and be with everyone

3. We also went to Cape Point and it was awesome. We saw the two oceans (Indian ocean and Atlantic) meet in the “end” of Africa.

Here is some pictures from the multipurpose center! Many of the South African volunteers working on the workcamp is part of diffrent orginisations. These orginisations all work for the children and the community.

This workcamp is a start of something very big. Because all the orginisations going to start to cooperate. The multipurpose center is going to be a pre-school for children in the age 1-5 when they learn through games and pictures! And the fruitgarden is going to give food for those children. Together this cooperation will mean that more children can get contribution and get knowledge before school!

1. Here the children get food on one of the soupdays that Mothers Unite have for the children.

2. This is when we played with the children. It was a lot of fun!

I really love it here!
Hej hopp!

Andrea
