Its been a while...

So I realize that I havn't written in ages, and as I think back I can see why. Well - its just really hard to put into words what my daily routine (if you can call routine) life is like. Especially now that Holy Given is here things have sorta settled into a groove - life just goes round and round without too much effort. Although living in Pemba requires effort to start with so what I meant was that it doesnt require too much EXTRA effort!

Some things have happened tho: both good and bad - let's start with the bad...

My car broke down while I was in town one day and I had to be towed back to my house - at first they thought it was dirty fuel, but it turns out to be an electrical problem. Fortunately there are some friendly South African mechanics in Pemba who helped me out free of charge! I was so grateful to have my car up and running again because the next day a good thing happend:

My parents came to visit me! Well, technically they didnt just come to visit me - they were team leaders for Georgian Banov's team and so their time was divided between the team and me. But it was great to have them in Pemba, for them to see where I live and what life is like up here!

Also I ran over a baboon. I was driving back from an overnight outreach early (We dont have many sound systems working at the moment, so I had to get the sound system back in Pemba for it to be used again at another event!) so, I was driving and suddenly a baboon ran out infront of me. I was on a dirt road, which meant that braking wasnt even an option - he went under the car between the wheels, and my mom (she was with me) says that she saw him get up and limp to the side of the road so at least I didnt kill him... oops.
