Rain, Rain and More Rain.

After being awoken during the night by the heavy rain, it was still pouring when we got up, now i'm used to rain living in England, but this was on a whole new level. Apparently the people in Tanzania do not cope well with the rain and everything basically comes to a standstill, when we arrived at the center we were greeted with all the children under shelter, we asked why they weren't in class they explained that school was cancelled because of the rain, but all the teachers were already there so I didn't get why classes were cancelled. Today was also the day that three volunteers were leaving, it was going to be strange we were a group of seven down to four. Linda and Anna two that were leaving were so lovely, they had been coming to the center for quite a few years so they new the children really well so all the children were so sad that they were leaving. When we started goodbyes, the children were starting to sing and say their goodbyes, everyone got so emotional, seeing the children get upset made me get upset, it was such a shame to see them leave, when we first arrived, Linda and Anna were the most helpful and caring people, it was just what we needed when we first got there.
