Malo!

well, i finally have a chance to breathe… today we have the day off and have all done some shopping and got phones. tomorrow is a big holiday here called white sunday which basically celebrates children. we will all be going to church where the kids will run the service and at homes the adults make meals for the children.

the plane ride was VERY long, but i actually slept for most of it. we arrived as the sun was rising. palm trees, foggy green mountains, and thick, hot air welcomed us along with the current peace corps volunteers. we rode to our hotel where we have been staying for this week of training. our room actually has air conditioning but we use it very sparingly. on friday we will be traveling to our training host village. we will be staying there for a few weeks/months to start acclimating to village life. i will try and upload some pictures soon. TOFA!
