Dunja loved the kids visit!

The CADFA youth visit just ended. To be honest, it was my favorite. I enjoyed it so much and I had so much fun with all the kids. 

Everything started with the residential in Sheringham. This place is so lovely. Not far from the youth hostel where we stayed was the sea. And next to the sea you could see green hills. We all went on top of the hills and enjoyed the beautiful view. There we played games and discussed different issues

The second stop was Norchwich, were we did tourism and had an event. I cooked Magluba with Maysa and lot of other people, who helped us. Very late in the night we arrived in Cambridge. We had perfect hosts. THANK YOU AGAIN! In both places, Norwich and Cambridge, we did a prisoners march. People actually really wanted to find out about us and read our leaflets.This really motivated us. Some of us had a competition about the amount of leaflets we gave out. 



In London my favorite moments were the sports day, the drama performance and our picnic in Greenwich.

On Friday, the sports day,  we first went to the Emirates Stadium. Palestinians love football. So everyone took lots of pictures. A very special part was the changing room of the Arsenal team. After this we went to to the  Sobel Leisure Centre. We did ice skating and trampolining. It was so nice to see everyone having fun together. For most of the Palstinians it was the first time doing ice skating. I was really happy to share this experience with them.

Saturday afternoon we had the drama performance in Camden lock. I was surprised how much they prepared in such a short time. It was just lovely seeing them together dancing and acting. Thank you!


Greenwich was the last day with the Palestinians for me. Unfortunately I needed to say goodbye, but it was a good end. We had lots of time to hang out, chat and play games together. We also did some interviews for a CADFA film. 






All in all i miss you and please come back. I had so much fun with you !!!!
