day twelve: phumezo's house

After Phumezo gave us a tour of Mandela Park, Khayelitsha, and Look Out Point, he graciously welcomed our team into his home to meet his wife, children and the neighborhood children that he often looks after. This was such a treat for us, and for me especially. The kids who lived nearby flocked to his house as soon as they saw two kombis full of "white people" pull up to Phumezo's house. They were thrilled to let us take their picture and they showed us a few hands games and foot dances (I'll post a video of that!).

I'm not sure how this was possible, but I somehow left and returned to America without any of these kids! Aren't they the cutest, biggest hams you've ever seen?
