Hello friends! I have arrived! I actually arrived in Lusaka Wednesday after more than 30 hours of travel. Since arrival in Lusaka we have been very busy running errands with the Lusaka FORGE staff and we will be leaving for Meheba, my home for the next six months, at 4:30am tomorrow. Tonight, however, we are making baked ziti from scratch and enjoying our last few hours at the FORGE house! While I can't wait to get to Meheba, I will be sad to say goodbye to my friend Sara from training who will be headed to a different camp, Kala. Our bus ride to Meheba will be 8-10 hours, but that's nothing compared to Sara's 15-17 hour ride!
As I am typing this I am sitting here in a layered fleece AND sweatshirt and two pairs of socks...I was not anticipating Lusaka to be this cold! I have the feeling this will not be the last surprise Zambia will throw at me. I’m looking forward to getting to the camp, and I promise I’ll snap pictures and upload them as soon as I can.
Safe and sound in Lusaka! - July 2
