Aunt Betty asked Mark several questions in a comment to our 21 January 2009 posting. Here are Mark's answers.
--Matt
* Have you
made new friends?
Yes. I
have eight new friends. Their names are Eva, Julian, John, Simone, and I don’t
know the names of my other friends. I used to know their names on the first day
of school, but I forgot them.
* What do
South African kids like to play?
They
like to play a game with a ribbon and you try to get to the other side without
being tagged, but I don’t know what the name of the game is.
* Have you
seen different animals and birds?
I have seen a lot of new birds. There’s a bird with a long beak and big, dark
circles around their eyes. It looks like a half-bird, half-zombie.
* Do you
like the food?
I don’t
know. I haven’t tried a lot of their food. I like their juice, their Rice
Krispies, their Corn Flakes, their onion rings, their hamburgers, and their
French fries (which they call chips here).
* Does
your dad like Tosca?
Yes he
does. He likes him more than Sam!
