So my weekends here are almost getting into a routine.
Saturday: Go to a restaurant in town and have a decent breakfast and converse with the other volunteers. Eventually make my way to the paradise resort and bum around the pool for a few hours trying to get rid of an awful farmer’s tan.
Sunday: Go to church down the street, have lunch with more Muzungus, inevitably discuss work for the week ahead.
Lunch yesterday was actually with a large group of people from the US. Some were here on their own account, a good portion were from a small school in California. Later decided to take advantage of the US actually being in soccer final and watched the US vs. Brazil game at a local resort last night.
I’m trying to implement what could become my weekly routine for most of the time I’m here as far as work goes. Today I helped the clinical lab with overflow, Tuesday I’m slated to do outreach, Wednesday I’m going to try and get to a small village to draw some blood from several children, Thursday teaching First Aid, and Friday working with disabled children.
The picture posted above is taken from the edge of the pool area, in case you were wondering the river in the background is indeed the Nile.
I’ve also included a photo of the building that I’m currently housed in.
