Day fifteen..

Upon arrival at the refugee camp, i see the largest crowd i've seen in my life! Mum and Bibi are sleeping in our 'tent'. Meanwhile, i had to chase a boy who stole my ball after i offered playing with him. I could't believe it! After he drops it, i pick it up and realise that I'm in a different part of the camp; a part i've never been to before. Hundreds of people were lying down and moaning. They look terribly sick.
i manage to stop a truck and talk to the drivers. I learn that the people are very hungry as they've been waiting for food to be shipped to them. The other driver is an Australian! I was so glad to learn that down under there were good soccer teams, girls were allowed to play soccer and people were allowed to be teachers, taxi drivers and bakers! There were thousands of schools, taxis, supermarkets and cake shops! Besides, Australians were always happy :D
As i turn back to tell my parents and Bibi the good news, i realise that i do not know the way back! i run aimlessly but it does not help at all. I'm lost!
