Following up on yesterday’s note about Commonwealth’s Hall Week: Tracy reported that (a) photographs were not allowed and (b) she would not have taken one anyway. The charging students wore fewer clothes than is legal. There is a concert tonight by a Nigerian singer. We hope to be able to sleep through the music.
Catherine’s friend Khadijah spent much of this errand day with us. First stop was Wild Gecko Handicrafts where Tracy picked up thank-you gifts for several people. A Spot Nose Monkey and a Sulcata Tortoise have homes “in the back.” Catherine and Khadijah enjoyed watching the animals from the swingset.
We also visited the Marina Mall but the toy store that Tracy wanted to patronize is no longer in business.
Finally, we all had haircuts at Star Salon. Khadijah watched while Catherine’s hair was cut.
This evening, Mark and Tracy will attend the play Raisin in the Sun on campus. Mark’s friend Kuno has a role.
