Remember how a few months back I posted this picture of a "fake lemon" which is really a very small "thing" growing on vines.
Today I met those two girls along the road as they were picking something. I went to have a look and it turns out that they were picking "fake lemons", but green before they even look like lemon. When I asked why they said it was to eat.
See, they are the same thing. They eat the leaves and the green "fruits"
Isn't she beautiful?
You will have noticed the state of their clothes....... The kids are pretty much all like this around here. In town (Vilanculos) they are dressed better. But in the more isolated places like around here this is the way most of them are. Though this morning the little kid's orange shirt looked nearly new...well, not new, but it had no holes! It was in very good shape.
