I spend my mornings waking up at 5 and staying in bed until 5:30. Eat breakfast with Dr. Robert and his wife. Then Mrs. Antoine, Dr. Robert, cousin Paulina, Fifi the cook, and Auntie pile into the car to head to town. It takes around 20 minutes and the first 10 are on old roads that are not paved. It is much like a roller coaster ride. And yes, today I did close my eyes so I did not get motion sickness.
While waiting for a tire to be fixed Paulina, Fifi, and I sat in the back. And they handed me a comb! I went from two small pig tails to taking them out and combing my hair. I was laughing becuase who would have thought my looks counted! They are becoming like family.
Afternoon: the kids were not eager to learn because it is Saturday I think. But we managed to get through some Math and do a lesson on construction.
New Land: 3 days work, sand, rocks, and other supplies to be purchase. I served all the men lunch today rice and beans. They are like my big brothers but I can not communicate with them! There is a man who is in hus 70s that works so hard so I give him extra waves and the men think its so funny!
Tommorow: Church with the kids and a day off!

Until then.
