our lives in small town, East Africa

Thursday, June 15, 2006

Well, this post is going to be short, because I am suffering from that most heinous of afflictions--acute jet lag. Seriously, if the guys at the CIA really wanted information from somebody they should just put him on "economy" class for a couple of days--right now I'd give my left leg for some sleep.

Sarah got a little more sleep on the planes than I did, so she's okay. Juma slept like a log; he's raring to go. His Swahili is coming back fast, and he is happy with everything but the constant walking. That is how we get everywhere--we walk and walk and walk....

Our layover in Amsterdam was great. We hung out at a park for a while and then went to the Van Gogh museum. They have over 200 of his paintings there--amazing.

This was one of my favorites:



Anyway, we're safe. I'll post more later.

Glad you're sort of okay and that's neat that Juma's Swahili is coming back to him. Have him write something in Kiswahili to us.
