Travelog for: Kasimir

We watched the host family's oldest daughter play cello in the spring concert!

Host mom took me along when she ran errands over lunch hour today. She stopped to take pictures with me on the northwest side of the town square.

We met a baby sparrow named Elizabeth. She fell out of the nest when she was little and is being rehabilitated to return to the wild as soon as she is able.

Mmm! Church supper at the Seventh Day Adventist Church!

We visited TLC greenhouse to look for more garden goodies. We found all sorts of amazing things to explore! Beautiful!

When the host family was going in to church this morning, they noticed butterflies all around the pretty purple flowers at the entrance. Host mom came back later to take our picture with them, but they are small and brown, so you have to look very hard to see them in the pictures.

One of the host family boys prepared for his history class final: giving a biography as Chandragupta Maurya, with his trusty war elephants!

This evening we attended the middle school choir and band concert, on the northwest side of the Iola town square.

We went to the fifth grade graduation at the elementary school today! So many happy kids!

Host mom stopped and took a look at the Prairie Spirit Trail on the way to work this morning!

From late spring to early fall, the west side of the town square in Iola is blocked off every Thursday evening for the Farmer's Market! We wandered around and met many nice people and saw fascinating things!

Hedrick's brought their petting zoo to town, so of course, we had to go and see! So many amazing critters!

Today, the host family took me to their dance studio for recital pictures. There were so many kids, so many costumes, and so much energy! I had sooo much fun!! Dance recital is in two weeks, and I can't wait to see the kids perform!

The host family went to help Lula with her garden again today. I had so much fun exploring! My favorite thing was the lovely, intricate bird nest that we found on the ground.

When we were coming back from Lula's, host mom decided to take a country road we hadn't explored before. Anastaysia got excited and we stopped to explore an old cemetery we found!
