As the end of our trip approaches we’ve both been quite busy: Meld being Class 4 teacher at Barnabas, and me trying to complete updates to websites and various admin tasks around and about.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday I went to Barnabas to see Harrison’s laptop, and managed to get a photo of Imelda’s shy colleague.<\/p>\n

Back home, the reduced dog family welcomed us.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday Imelda finished early and we went by boda boda (motorbike taxi, also know as piki piki) to the Transitional Workshop for Disabled Young Women<\/a> at Shanzu. We didn’t realise that Selina worked here, although she was not there at the time. They make a wide range of products from kikoy fabric…<\/p>\n

…and sell them in their shop.<\/p>\n

We then went on to Kikambala for a lovely supper with Coralis.<\/p>\n

Thursday’s main adventure was a shopping trip in Joe’s truck to Nakumatt to buy sodas for our party on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Friday found Shanique hitching a ride in a hand cart<\/p>\n

And Imelda teaching drawing<\/p>\n

Martin and the boys have been clearing the grounds for the party tomorrow. Martin and Shariff disappeared, and came back with a crab!<\/p>\n

Sadly the crab was only to look at, as they’d also brought its owner!<\/p>\n

Unusually for January, the nights are a bit cool here – you certainly need a sheet over you in bed – maybe it’s preparation for going home!<\/p>\n
