This is just one of the reactions from the babies in the village. The baby was sitting pleasantly on the ground when I came up and he burst into tears and begged another little girl to pick him up. Not really used to white people around I guess. A few moments later I was coming around the corner of a hut and I "bumped" into another little baby walking. I would have scared anyone, but this kid freaked out! I mean freaked out!!! I have never seen such terror in someones face before. Like he had just run into a ghost. (save yourself the time on making a comment on this….I can already hear them) It was one of the funniest things I have ever seen. I just wish I had it on video. Come to think of it, I would have been an America's Funniest Videos winner no doubt. Maybe I will just start popping out of nowhere and film little kids reactions. Classic. Wait, I might be onto something here……seriously.
