Last full day of school - Aqua Park!!!

My day started like most....watching the shepherd guide her sheep up from the field, down the street and into another grassy area. The little ones are so, so cute.

Then we headed to school. Lots of waiting time out front of the school while we wait for the buses to take the 4th/5th graders down the main road about 10 minutes away to Aqua Park, then return for us!! The kids can hardly stand the wait!!!! :D

We arrive and the excitement level is rising!!!!

Then more waiting in line. There were LOTS of other schools there also!!

These are the five I'm in charge of for the day! AND...two of their moms showed up to help out!! What an easy day! Where ever the girls go....I go...we all stay together all day! Luckily they are super kids! :D

Ghita and Yasmine waiting in line for a slide!

Funny story from the day......... well, in Morocco they don't do "lines" like we do in the states. So...ya, confusion, constant pushing and shoving. So several times I was yelling at other kids to move or stop pushing.... Those kids looked at me like I was an alien and my kids looked at me and said, "But, Miss, they don't understand English!!" Dah! :D (They DID understand when I literally MOVED them behind my girls and said "La!" (no!) :D 

The place was HUGE and had tons of things to do....a wave pool, two or three other wading pools like this one with animal sculptures in them, probably 10 - 12 slides of various types (some reallllly tall ones - the girls told me someone died on one of those....we avoided that one), a lazy river float and lots of green space to have lunch and rest!


Is she beautiful or what?? Love this little one. I really know my decision to come home is the right one for me, but when her mom asked if I could stay just three more years and teach her little sister is it ALMOST changed my mind. The parents have been very kind.

Another one of my beautiful girls! My little equestrian! Lila loves everything about horses and horse back riding!!

Oh shucks! My boys are with another adult today!! :D  :D They did a great job though and had a wonderful time too!!!





They had these cool bed-looking things to lay on and relax. I kept asking the girls if they wanted to take a nap and they looked at me and laughed!! "No, Miss, we are here to play!" At the end I did get them to pose for me! :)

Then the boys came and joined us! :D Well, that's it for the day of Aqua Park! What a fun day for everyone! Now five 1/2 days left next week and I will be heading HOME! I'm sooooo ready!
