Hello from Tabora. Quick update while I have a few minutes left:

  • Went to a 6 hour long sermon at the Cathedral that Richard helped to build, lots of singing, lots of swahili, lots of not understanding what was going on.
  • Went to the Tabora hotel for a boogie that evening and danced every kind of dance under the sun. We taught each other how to chacha and Tina taught us african dancing.
  • Half the group have a stomach ache (including me, but I have a mild case) and they got checked for malaria today. Luckily everyone had a clean bill of health.
  • Looked at some awesome water tank-age yesterday, everyone should use a compost toilet.
  • Going to Nzega on Thursday, and then the team will be splitting into three to go to their respective villages to start doing the work = no more holiday :(
  • I'm the token "mchina" = chinese person everywhere I go. Oh well.
  • Went to the market today and I will be returning there later this evening to pick my tailor made african dress! Good Times!
  • Amaury is being very graphic about his diaorrhea and bum washing techniques. I can't believe I have to spend the next 2 weeks in Kahama with him.
  • I am project manager in our group of three = I get to boss the two boys around muhaha.
  • I just checked my results! Didn't muck it up! WOOP!
