SNOW

I heard many stories from different people about the fun, games and entertainment programme on the mountains during the winter period. I had it in mind to go during Christmas period which I did with my friends. The journey started on a beautiful evening with anticipation and excitement of going to the top of the mountain. The bus was so long that we had extra space for sleeping. I determined in my heart not to sleep but to open my eyes wide to see what was going on around me. In the bus, I sat with a friend who was my entertainer. He said "Is it true that you have never seen snow before?" The question was a shock. I was caught unaware and did not know what to say but to laugh and after I had gain strength to talk I said, "well it is true and why did you ask?" He said "Somebody close to you told me and I know you don't have snow in the part of Africa you came from." Which was true. I only see snow in the television but I never had a touch or walk on it. He said to me again "I will warn you not to go high on the mountain because you could fall down and break your bones and be very careful when you step on it because, snow makes someone to dance if she don't want." We both laugh and had lots of fun.





Smile on the face of new Africans in Europe heading for the mountain top.

Laughing to a funny joke in the bus like a little kid watching a cartoon.
