It was an early start this morning up by seven thirty,made the bed, quick tidy of the room and packed our bags ready for the day. By 8.30 all the family had had breakfast apart from Wallis (the father) whom takes his time but will be the first to tell everyone else to get a move on. Everyday without fail he makes us all laugh with his sarcasm and joking, its great to have him around. By quarter to nine we were all in the car and ready to go!
We arrived at nine ( we were suppose to be there at eight thirty but hay "this is Africa" as they say. As we were guests to the church we had to come to the front and introduce ourselves to around one hundred people..very embarrassing, they welcomed us.
The service went on for around an hour and i can say i was well and trully bored ten minutes in, felt like a life time. Nothing like i was expecting! I cant really say anything much about it that was exciting the singers were painful. I asked Wallis why they put their selves through that. He laughed and said "if we change the singer she will feel lowered so we let her get on with it" hmm not sure what i think of that.
Tomorrow I will be at Monica's. Until then....x (very home sick today)
It is only natural that you feel home sick but when you get back to the children you will feel differently. You are having the opportunity of a lifetime to experience another culture and help the little ones, enjoy. The weather here is not brilliant we have had some rain and sunshine in between. We have Amelie this week as Lucienne is working. We will give her a kiss from you. Off to Spain on the 18th and then onto the villa for the 22nd. We will keep in touch. Very proud of you and send lots of love. Mum and Dad
