My Daily Walk To School

Near the Neili school where I teach almost every day is a street lined with a muraled wall. The other side of the street is a lot of abandoned buildings that look like they burnt to a crisp.
Most of the mural shows happy pictures with people smiling and trees and rivers, but at the very end in of the wall is a much more somber mural with people crying in the windows of burning buildings.



This is one of my favorites. It shows the trucks that drive around to collect garbage. So that people know they are coming and can come out and throw their trash in the back, the trucks constantly blast ice cream truck like music. In this mural you can see people holding their ears in pain as the truck drives by.
