well sorry i've taken so long to post another blog but our internet has been down for awhile! HEy thanks every one for commenting on my blog i didn't think anyone was really going to read it! I am loving it here the food is great but i am really missing the dairies and fruits and veggies!!!! we eat so many carbs here! i am getting so fat they love to feed us! I got my luggage and i am in heaven clean clothes are the best!
Every one that finds out that were froom the USA asks about OBAMA and how he is doing people here love him it is so funny i love it! every one has pictures of the obama family its hilarious.
This week was so fun we went to a school out in NAJJA to build a adobe stove which was so fun all the kids came to help us build it. the best was stomping the clay with our bare feet! on our way home from the school the muffler fell off the car so the driver got out grabbed a strip off the trunk of the banana tree tied it to the muffler and we were on our way! who would have thought you could fix a muffler so easily! the taxi drivers are crazy here they go at least 60 on a dirt road passing all other cars or bodas(motercycles) on the road and if they go in the ditch they don't care! they also squish as many people in them as possible! we had 23 people two kids two chickens and three 30 lb bags of food in our taxi that is only suppose to seat 12 people! so scary especially on a dirt road! also you have to be careful because one of the chickens bit one of our team members it was actually really funny though!
On wednesday we ran into a group of docs and dentist who asked if we would be willing to help them. So jessie kim and i went. I was with the doctors helping them with procedures and checkups it was so awesome and made me appriciate everything i have ezpecially the medical care!
