the SAIntS

By far the most interesting part of our day was a tour of Saint Andrews International School: Saints for short.

 On this stop along memory lane you can imagine how delighted I was to find, so many years later, a mark that I personally left... and re-found. And no, it wasn't something I'd written on the back of a door or scratched into a desk. It was my own handwriting in a framed photo collage of a trip I don't think I'd ever actually been on. Apparently back then I already enjoyed the graphic design tasks.
The title of this particular collage was Saints on the move. That seems rather appropriate when I think of all the Saints (alumni) that came to mind during our visit of the school grounds. I would love to name every one of you but I undoubtedly I would omit someone so I'll run through the places and activities where we 'shared time' and hopefully if you Saints come across this you'll know: this one is about you.

Other stops on this day included:
The Mandala House (including a coffee at La Caverna)
Society of Malawi Historic & Scientific
The Malawi Museum (Chichiri museum)
The Boma
St. Paul's Anglican Cathedral (by accident, really)
 Bombay Palace

Thanks
for all those lengths swum
for chopsticks played on the piano's
for turns taken on the CDT machines
for teaming up in chemistry and home economics
for lunches shared on the benches by the sports fields
for notes written and passed along (the original text messaging :)
for house competitions (go Chiradzulu!)
for cross country, assemblies, choir, dancing, theater...
for the teachers and the grounds-staff (the real Saints)

for friends. for SAIntS
