Day 39 – Sunday 7th March 2010

The church choir do have beautiful voices, and the when they sing the hairs on the back of your neck really do stand up.

Sadly at 6:45am on a Sunday morning their harmonies got a very different response.

We are moving! (not in response to the singing, well not fully)

Tim and Kim who are heading back to the States have asked us to house sit, and when we show you some pictures you will see how blessed we have been. It is a lovely house, very spacious and in a great location.

So we started packing this afternoon and are starting the move on Monday. They go at the end of the week, but we are going to stay from Monday night to get to know the quirks of the house, the guard dogs and the home help.

Packing is always a horrible task and although we haven’t been in this house long, we will be sad to say goodbye. I, in particular will miss my desk. We have become quite attached in these blog writing sessions, but I hope a close relation will be found in our new home.

It is a hot and sticky afternoon, and we have spent a good couple of hours on Swahili. It is getting hard to motivate yourself to do some language everyday but you really do need it, so we use tea and cake to convince and bribe ourselves to get down to work.IMG_3842

We also had to do some acting today. Armorel decided that we should have had a photo from last Sunday when we were filling our water tank with buckets, so I was forced out of my Sunday best and sent up to the roof, just for a much staged photo. I hope you feel suitably entertained and informed by our afternoon of photography.

Tonight it is still hot, and it is sticky too.

Even a bucket shower is appealing!
