Zambia is amazing. You have not seen Africa until you come to Zambia! The people here are humble and survive on the most basic items. People in America who have not had the opportunity to travel to Africa have no idea what is like over here. I can’t really explain it in words, but it is humbling. I am more grateful for the things that I have been blessed with in my life, for example running water, basic food, appropriate medical care, and basic housing.
We finally got our money and I was able to buy some food and I was grateful.
It is starting to cool off here. It has just started into the rainy season. It rain here like crazy. I have never seen so much rain. So far we have been lucky and have been able to take cover in member home before we are totally soaked. That has been a real blessing!
Last night, we had braai (pronounced BRY)—Afrikaans for barbecue at our branch presidents house. It was a lot of fun. It was a celebration for his 68th birthday. We ate a ton of food. It was lots and lots of meat, along with music and dancing. It was like another “P” day for us. It was a lot of fun to just hang out and relax. I am going to send some pictures soon.
At the end of this month we are planning on going to a game preserve for our zone activity. I am excited about that. It should be a great adventure!!
