Day 14

Our 3rd day in Hermanus started off with a trip to Zwelihle, where some local soccer games were taking place. We watched some soccer for a bit until the two youth teams affiliated with Rainbow Trust arrived. They played a friendly match against each other, and team black ended up winning a shoot-out After the game, the team and split the teams into two groups, and we ran a fun training session for them. We played some games, and put together a few relay races for them. I think the kids really enjoyed themselves. After the session, we walked over to the Red Cross, located in the township, and had some braai, which was prepared by the wonderful people who volunteer for the Red Cross. After our lunch, we headed back to our hostel to change into some more comfortable clothes. We had the afternoon at leisure, so Corrie, one of the employees of Rainbow Trust, picked us up at our hostel and took us on a beautiful mountain walk. We walked to the "waterfall", but since the weather had been very dry, it looked more like a puddle - haha. The cave in which the waterfall was located was very beautiful, and we took lots of pictures together. After our walk, we headed back to our hostel to get ready for our farewell dinner! We ate at a beautiful restaurant (I can't remember the name), and we all had a FEAST! the meal was just sensational. We headed back to the hostel after dinner, where we all stayed up played pool until 2:30am, which was when Lindsay, Caitlin, and Brittany were picked up to go to the airport. We said our goodbyes, shed a few tears, and the 6 remaining players went to bed!

Stay tuned for our last day of the trip!
