hey good lookin hi i am just so inspiired by what you have been ndoing and writing about. when i am older i wanna be just like you. It is so enjoyable to let Ms Cord read them to me every other class or so. i really appreciate it. xoxox
Good times This is truly amasing that these children have so little, and that they fight so much over things we almost consider insignificant. I think it is too bad that they would have fought over these simple pleasures, when had they not, they all could have come out satisfied. I think it is really fantastic, what you are doing and although this is really happening, it is really difficult to grasp it untill we have seen it. It is too bad that we can't be of more help.. :)
Hi! I read your blog today in socials class and the pictures are beautiful! nice photography skills. It is amazing how little these kids have and how they make toys out of materials they do have. Keep up the good work and dont give up, its really inspiring!
hello As I was about to say before the computer crapped out the last article was very depressing and unjust. Im girls having to do the hard work while boys play, and little kids snatching.
Hi Buddy, again I know u, but u dont know me. HI im Doug hows it going. Thats dissapointing that those children were so greedy in your last blog. Have Fun!!!!!!!!! Bye
Hi,
my name's Michael and I am an international student from Austria. We are currently reading your blogs in Socials 11.
Your blog is really good and it's interesting what life in Sudan is like.
To see those children makes me think of how good life is for us. We are always complaining but compared to those children in Sudan we have everything they could imagine and more.
I really have respect for your work

soccer ball! Hi Don,
my name is Magnus and i am one of the student from miss cord.
I am originally from Germany, but i am an exchange student for 6 Month here in Whistler.
I like the picture, were the children bulild their own soccer ball. Its amazing to see, that these kids create stuff to play, so that they have fun all together!
In my home town soccer is really big, and we dont care about how to crate a soccer ball. We just buy them!
take care!

Hi Don
Im an international student in Ms Cord's social studies class, and I think that it has been really interrresting to read about your "adventures" in Sudan. Its alwayes nice to start the class with reading a blog instead of working with Canadian government all the time (how fun do you think that is when im from Denmark). Thanks for making the lesssons a little more easy to take;)
Keep up the good work

For the time that you have been in Sudan have there been many conflicts to stop? It sounds like you are having lots of fun being part of NATO must be like a long vacation. Well i hope your having fun cant wait to hear your storys when you come back.
Hello Hi Don,
thanks for sharing your experiences in Sudan with us. It's interesting to hear about life in Africa and I think it is important to know about the differences between us and the people in poor countries.
Don't get discouraged, you will be home soon.

hi Hi my name is Emily and I am in Ms. Cord's Socials 11 class. We have been reading your blog everyday as a part of our class and learning about your trip. I find it the best part of class because we are actually learning about present day problems. Today is Haloween and everyone at our school is all dressed up, it's really great to see all the school spirit. My friends and I have gone as charactors from Peter Pan, I am Tiger Lily(the native girl who is kidnapped by Hook). It is sad seeing all the pictures of the young kids and you can see how skinny they are and I know that I have so much. I guess it's a lot harder for you actually being there and experiencing all the trajedies(don't know if thats spelt right). So what is the best part of being there? What would you reccomend to any one who is thinking of doind what you are?
Well anyways looking forward to meeting you!
Emily
Hi Don,

Final countdown Hey Dude, chin up, the end is near. We'll be seeing you soon.
As for your narcoleptic patrol mate, he might have done some Naval Engineering training...I know I can sleep most anywhere, most anytime...I guess that comes in handy...
cool stuff and monkey hi Im Lukas Im one of ms cords students and your blogs are pretty good we have to read them start of every class (I guess its better than work) and all I want to say is I want a pet monkey it may harsh over thier in torit but i would so get a monkey that would cheer me up.I would train him to backflip juggle and ski. Of course I can imagine a monkey gettin on little monkey skiis and sacking him self instantly (poor monkey) so may be snowboarding is a better idea anyways hope things go well their.PS remember to bring the monkey
My name is Luana and I am in Ms. Cord's grade 10 socials class at Whistler Secondary. I really enjoy reading your blogs and looking at the pictures. The pictures that you take are my favourite part, they are awesome, they capture all the interesting details. I was wondering how many people live in the Torit area where you are based? keep up the exellent work!
Amasing adventures Hi Don. I wanted to say that i think that your experiences are an amasing feat. I really enjoy listening to your blogs, they really show me just how Privileged we are. It makes me wonder why we need so very much and the trouble is, I can't think of a reason. Thank you very much for opening my eyes.
Hello Don we have been reading about your adventures for the past few months now and Ms. Cord is making us write something to you. I've been thinking about joining the Canadian Forces for a while now but im not sure if it would be better to join or to go to some normal collage. I was wondering if you could post an oppinion. So I just figured it would be better to ask someone who was in the military then anyone else. Thanks.
nice butcher hey, my name is brendan and im in ms. cord's 9 class. Nice pictures, its unbelevibal the amount of strain on those girls necks. i was wondering whats the most odd food youve seen at the market? stay safe
Great Blog Hi Don, my name is Harrison Shrimpton, i'm a student of Ms. Cord's. Ms. Cord has read all your blogs to us and they're great. This blog was koo because being near some real bombs is pretty intense. It's kinda gross about people living their "business" on the trail. LOL. The Joseph kid looks pretty cool. Your picture of the woman says a lot about how much they have to do. A picture says a thousand words. Keep writing!!!!
Hi buddy Hi Don, im Doug a student of Ms. Cord's class. She has been reading out all of your blogs to us. Did u ever find out what happened to Torit? Or did u find any more rat crap in your food?
Hey I am in Ms. Cordingley's class she told the class to comment and I have a few questions. Like did you ever find out what happened to Torit? Also was the gym equipment fall apart bad? And what is the most interesting thing you have seen in Sudan?
