Rest Day




Today we had a rest day, well if that what you call it. It has also being very cold today, all most no sun, with most of us having to put coats on, it was 23 degrees, it just felt cold. Some of the group went to Church this morning, Church in Zambia starts at about 10.00am and finish about 3.00pm, our members only attend for about 2hrs today to enable them to do some of the other things going on.

After lunch, 12 young people went rafting on the river, we only let them do the short run today which lasted about 1.5hrs, all returned wet having had a good time. We are having a quiz night for even one at present. The Hot Springs has also being well used today

Its back to work tomorrow, more bricks to move and brick laying to do, we are hoping the wood for the roof truss's will arrive so we can start putting them together.

We've just returned from the lakes where we've dropped chris brown off to do his 3 week outward bound course, It rained, as usual. Off to Longleat tomorrow to see some Lions with Abi, have you seen any wildlife yet? Keep up the good work everybody you're doing a fantastic job and should be very proud of yourselves.

  5. Hi Katie,Dad sent me an e.mail and I followed the links to get here. It sounds absolutely fantastic what you are all doing out there - you should all be so proud, I just wish I could have done something like that years ago! Although, perhaps I can in years to come eh? Mica's now growing up and who knows?
    I'll try to keep up with your progress, keep smiling, Auntie Maria and the Clan xx

  6. What a great team - exploring a wonderful partnership - I'm full of admiration for all you have already achieved. 'Giving' to others is the greatest thing in life and the 'returns' are priceless. Keep going to finish the job, look out for each other and enjoy yourselves along the way. Ben's grandad.
