After a difficult 15 hour plane ride (I threw up just as we landed in Jo'burg; I think I caught Andrea's flu), we arrived in Zambia. The PC picked us up in Land Rovers, African style. The past three days have been mostly training in our American volunteer group bubble. Today is the first day we've been out.
Tommorrow we go on site visits. Chris and I will be visiting current volunteers, a couple, in the Eastern province. We also found out our permanent post; we'll be in the Northern province. Chris will be pioneering a LIFE program in that province, which is an honor. The Northern region is known for its rain and cooler temperatures, hills and waterfalls.
I'm typing against the timer right now, so we'll fill you guys in later.
Glad you got there!!! Keep us posted!! We had a wonderful party yesterday for Mom. Many folks came and everything was PERFECT!!! I have my house full of family= they are sleeping all over the floor right now!! Lots of love to you both!! Alberta
