it's raining like crazy, and i'm waiting for my ride to start the 5 hour trek to cantandica. ug, if i thought i hated long car rides at home (road trips are the stinks!) i really don't enjoy car rides over here. i get too car sick. thank god anna gave me a good supply of dramamine.
i keep expecting my good luck with internet connectedness to run out. i thought for sure i wouldn't have any in this sleepy beach town, but here i am, blogging away. i am *for certain* not to have any in catandica though. everyone keeps correcting me when i ask about the town, saying "no, no, it's not a town, it's a village." so there you have it.
i'll be back in maputo on wednesday, and counting down the days until i get home! although it's been an amazing month, i'm sick of the turtle, 'house-on-my-back' life. i think i will put the 4-5 outfits i brought with me on a year-long hiatus from wardrobe rotation. if i don't see or wear another pair of linen pants in my life.....sigh. is it weird that i really, really miss wearing my jeans?

Hello there! We actually missed the great snowfall predicted yesterday. We only had a dusting while Columbus, Ohio received 20 inches of snow!! They have declared the city a state of emergency. Sorry to hear about your long car ride . . . less than a week to go now! I'm sure you're beginning to feel homesick for the great USA and jeans and A2. Have a great birthday tomorrow with your friend . . . you'll get to celebrate all over again when you get come. Anxious to see you and thanks for the link to your pictures. Love, Bob & Brenda
Hola! Ugh..don't envy your 5 hr. haul and I can relate to the motion sickness. I have to fix my sight straight ahead. No looking sideways or, God forbid, backwards...uuuugghhh...enough said. I want to wish you a Happy Bday, sister! Not sure you're able to celebrate at your "village" but enjoy the day if you can. And, YES! It's totally rational to miss your jeans!!! We miss you and we'll all celebrate once you return safely home. Besotes! Ali
