Playing the Weight Game

We always like to pack as much as we can when going to South Africa. We brought 7 suitcases full of school uniforms, children’s vitamins, pencils, shoes, hats, toothbrushes, toiletries, socks, underwear and other necessities for the people living in the informal settlements of South Africa. After several rounds of swapping a pound here and a pound there, we were able to spread all stuff between the team members—as we did a victory dance each time a suitcase was checked-in! Perfect 49-50 pounds each time!
