Or at least, we think that's how you spell FOUR in Swahili! It's been four days!!
Lots has happened in this time! We were welcomed into Dr. Mhando's home, and he has been so incredibly hospitable! The world needs more people like him. Him and his family treat us like their kids :)
We met at his home two days ago, where Mama Mhando had prepared some amazing dishes for us. Yummy corn from their backyard! Marc had two. The rest of us stuck to one. We discussed MedOutreach's history and our plans going forward. Some of us got an even greater impression of the fact that we're part of a legacy that was started by the first MedOutreach team. Dr. Mhando really has a very inspirational manner of speaking!
We're all very eager to begin work in clinics next week. Next stop: Nkoaranga!
In the meantime, we're made loads of friends here! Chief amongst them are Angel and her wonderful aunt who also live at our hostel. Angel is simply adorable and apparently sleeps with a little bouncey ball that we gave her.
More later! It's getting dark and we need to cross the dangerous "bridge" before nightfall. Else, we may be in trouble.. oops!
Lots of love,
MedOutreach
