Soccer and the Zoo!

On Monday I attended a middle school soccer (futbol) match between our school and CAS (another American school in Casa). Although we lost 0 to 6 it was fun to support our team and watch them do something they love. I even got some girls to start cheering with me! Sarah tried to convince them to do a pyramid but that didn't go over so well...something about Miss Smallegan volunteering to be bottom middle :)

Today (Saturday) we went to the zoo in Rabat! One of our co-workers has a little boy and invited us to join them on their adventure. We weren't expecting much but it turned out to be pretty cool. I never would have expected to see a chipmunk in a cage...but I suppose in Africa you don't see many of those :) The craziest/coolest part was the lion exhibit. The "lion keeper" started to get them riled up...and soon we had a lion choir! It actually was a bit scary. He wasn't being very careful and one time I thought he was going to be a goner! It was a powerful display of the might of a lion...wouldn't want to meet it when it was angry (or hungry)!
