Last night we all had dinner at "Crisp Burger" what a name !! But the place was ok. There was a troup of African dancer/singers who were just awesome!! Amazing energy - drumming, singing dancing - everyone got into the act. SO much fun!!
Great morning at school. I'm actually teaching my pre-from 1's the same things that I usually teach my freshmen!! Glad to be doing this in stead of English!! Not my thing...
I started the Form 3 Bio students on a project yesterday. I was amazed when I arrived this morning - they were all done - and all done beautifully!! They are making some "visual aids" for Biology (of whihc the school has none) I thought it would be good to try and leave soemthing that could be used by the teachers and the students. Going to try and frame them up a bit and hang them. Mr Moschi seemed quite pleased with the project - he wants me to take pictures of the kids with the projects - to give them some recognition.
A bunch of the kids are also writing letters for students at MHS......will get MHS students to write back. The old penpal thing.
Mr Jumba's mother died last weekend. I was surprised that he talked about it. He has become more talkative and friendly. Sad about his mom..
Everyone excited about the election today...
This afternoon we all piled in the Mzungu Dalla Dalla (our van) to go to Arusha where the Rwanda Tribunal has been taking place. We were supposed to actually be able to watch the trial that's going on but they had a closed session today...a bit disappointing but we still learned a lot about the trials. Too much to post here...
tried again witht he pix aaarrrggghhh think the connection is just too slow; but I'm going to try one more time....

Hi Bon, there is one picture there! Love hearing about your teaching experience..have so many questions. Can't wait to see all your pictures and get more info..still miss you lots!!
Love, Marsh
Does the school have internet access or is the Cafe/town the only spot for this?
Did I tell you already that I missed you!!!!!
Sounds like you're getting around a bit- that's good! I'm sure that you will maximize the rest of your trip.
Weather still good- 70 and sunny today. M and I saw The WHO this week- what a show. Did all the classics, "Won't get fooled again, Baba oriley, behind blue eyes, who are you, love reign over me, etc" Sound was perfect- not so loud but as clear as a brand new album. Was a good way to spend election eve!
McCain gave a great concession speech- great guy but I think the people picked the proper guy for the occasion. Exciting time to be around DC.
Will write more later.
