School Visit
After the balloon ride, we returned to the ship to join our non-airborne companions for more normal morning activities. First, we visited the El-Shohada Primary Mixed School, a recent departure from all-boys and all-girls schools. The mixing is still not complete, as you can see, because the boys and girls are still in different parts of the classroom.
