I think I've hit exhaustion already. Going all day and staying up late is not doing my health good. Several people have already gotten sick and I do not want to get it. A nap was helpful after dinner, so that I sould sing.
A couple of items of note....we ate shema for the first time at lunch. It is the traditional Zambian meal, usually eaten with the right hand only, no utensils. We were allowed to adjust it a little, as long as we tried it. It wasn't terrible but I could not eat it daily as the locals do.
After dinner we went to watch the sunset, which was beautiful! The best spot is over by the soccer field and a game was going on...bonus! I was able to take some video and pictures of the events. My nap was soon after, then it was chorus practice time with Webster. We now know 3 songs in Tonga and are doing very well. Lots of compliments coming our way! I'm pretty sure I smile ear to ear when I'm singing in a different language. We will be performing these songs when we visit our cook, Leonard's church. I can't wait!
Continue praying that sickness will not dampen our spirits to serve here in Zambia and that we would be renewed each day with purpose and joy! Love to you.
