A couple of Sundays ago, we were heading to the school with the intention to watch some of the female students participating in some activities to celebrate International Women’s Day. We got distracted. On our way there, we stopped to pick up breakfast and stumbled across a crowd of people waiting for something. Down an alley, we saw a group of dancers and noticed that it was a wedding celebration. We decided to wait along with them on the sides of the street.
While we stood there chatting with Jerry, who happened by as we were waiting, some of the neighbours were going about their business. A couple of kids were doing homework on the sidewalk while their parents set up shop for the day. They are the ones hanging belts up. The elderly people stood around and gossiped and some even set up their folding chairs to be more comfortable. It was a nice warm afternoon so we enjoyed our time out in the sun.
After an hour and a half, this was the most exciting thing to happen. We only got a very quick glance at the bride who
was quickly whisked away in the awaiting car. Then the firecrackers were lit. The kids stopped doing their homework to prepare for the impending noise.
p.s. At the end of the movie, I ran away from the edge of the street cause bits of the firecrackers were starting to rain down on us.
