Daddy daughter date

         Ok, I had this blog written for a long long time but never posted it so I decided to fix it up. Me and my dad were on a daddy daughter date.  We had a Haitian friend with us. His name was Lucnare, and he was a pastor.  We were going to a plant farm with chickens and goats.  When we walked through the plants they were.........HUGE!!.  It was the biggest plant field I ever saw.  On the way to see the goats there was a guy shredding weeds (kinda like a mower). It was cool.  Next to that there was a cherry tree.  I love to eat cherries off the tree.  We bought moranga plants and peppers( which are very expencive here).  After that we went to Lucnare's mom's house.  We went there yesterday and said we would come back tomorrow to take pictures of her harvesting her rice.  When we got there she was way over to the other side! (Rice needs water to grow so it's very muddy).  As we were walking across I slipped 3 times.  Then my dad fell in and his jeans were covered in mud, and his foot was stuck.  But we continued.  Lucnare jumped into the mud to get across. Then he told ME to jump in too!  I said to myself " oh no!" I jumped into the brown and slippery stuff.  We had a problem...IT WAS PAST MY KNEES!!!!!!  I told my dad I was sinking in the mud, so he grabbed me and I climbed up. My dad made a decision and turned back.  Luknare said to cross by the house in the rice so we did that.  When we got to the house they grabbed water and a basin and started to wash our feet and clothes.  We refused and we washed ourselves.  My dad said to me "what do you think?"  I said IT was ok.  Anyway, I enjoyed spending time with my dad.  What an experience.
