Well, I'm writing from the bush… Jake is heading into a town tomorrow to get building supplies and should be able to send out emails so hopefully this will get posted. We've been out here three days and we're having a great time. The team is really great and extremely hard workers… they've already got all the land cleared for the Clinic site so I think they'll get lots done. It is sooooo beautiful out here, butterflies everywhere; we have seen tons of hornbills, African gray parrots, and even monkeys swinging in the trees. There are also LOTS of bugs, but we haven't got bitten too badly yet. Seth did get stung by a hairy caterpillar twice yesterday but he's fine, I don't think he will touch them again now. The boys are having a great time running around all over the place. They've also been playing in the sand pile for blocks with all the village kids. I don't think some of them have ever done it before but they are really enjoying it!
We walk 4 miles to church this morning, it was a great service, really African, women yelling and people dancing, only drums and shakers for instruments, it was a lot of fun, very different from the city. We'll have a 5 mile walk next week to another churchJ. Well, need to end before the battery dies, I'll write more if I get the chance.
