Thursday, May 17
Next morning we went to the airport for our final flight to
Zambia. There were a few odd traditions on this flight…keeping the shades open
for takeoff and spraying the cabin for bugs before takeoff. Once we braved the
bumpy ride, we hopped on a bus to Namwianga for an hour and a half. Namwianga
is the name of mission that we are staying and working at this summer. We toured
the facilities and found our rooms. I think I know everyone’s name now. I currently have 2 roommates, Miriam (Mel)
and Catarina (Cathy). Ashley is a tag-along with the group and she stays in the
room across from us. Only two spiders were spotted so far. I am on the top bunk
and have a canopy mosquito net. The mosquitos haven’t seemed to be biting but
we are taking every precaution to make sure that we don’t get malaria.
