A picture pretty far from my house looking into downtown Maputo.
This is so cute! It's how they decorate cars for newly wed couples, on Saturdays & Sundays there are weddings all over the place!
mmm.. pretty fascinating...
This is the Indian Ocean at low tide. Some of these boats are wrecked but others are left there purposefully by the fisherman until the next day's fishing! There are hundreds!
I got here safely (and with all my luggage! untouched!) Friday morning. Jet lag really never hit me because the whole "traveling for two days straight" messed with my head and body so much! I got here Friday, went with my uncle for a walk to get ice cream (sorvete!) down the street, went to my cousin Jason's basketball game Friday night and then fell asleep around midnight. All in all, pretty normal --just in Mozambique! :o) I've spent the weekend attempting to get acclimated and learn my way around, but it's proving quite difficult because I can't pronounce the street names and I keep thinking I'm getting into the driver's seat but really it's the passenger side!! *they drive on the right side lol* I went to church with my family Sunday night and loved it, met some girls that are my age who I look forward to getting to know :o) And on Thursday morning I head out to IRIS! Thus far my internet has been wonderful and available, but I think that will all change when I'm at the orphanage. I can't wait to get there! Hopefully my next blog will be all about the kids I meet!! :o)
