Hello everyone! I am back in the city and have (limited) access to the internet (if only I could get my laptop to connect!). I had an amazing time in the village for the last month, met some absolutely incredible people and did not want to leave. I have many stories and reflections to share, and some awesome pictures of some truly inspiring people who have almost nothing but enormous hearts. Also, in between leaving the village and returning to the city I took a few days and visited the South Luangwa national park (look it up!) to do some safaris and game (wildlife) drives - all I can say is, wow. Again, I have tons of stories and hundreds of pictures that I will post as soon as possible. So I'll get writing and start posting within the next few days. In the meantime - Mel: you can tell Hannah that YES I've seen giraffes, AND zebras, AND hippos, AND crocodiles, AND leopards, AND LIONS - all at just a few metres away from our open-air safari jeep! What an experience. These teaser pics were taken with my crappy camera - THAT'S how close I was!
For now, musale bwino (stay well). My love to you all - especially to K and the boys. xoxox

CHERIE!
HAPPY CANADA DAY!
The EWB Western Retreat is this weekend. Do you have any huge plans which would prevent us from talking to you on the phone Friday, Saturday or Sunday? (No promises but I will do my best to make it happen.)
I love the pics, excited to see more! :)

Hey Lauren and UofC chapter! It is retreat weekend - we also have our mid-placement retreat this weekend, travelling on Saturday, but with the time difference we may be able to arrange a phone call. Without knowing the schedule for your retreat, the best time at your end (that would also work for me here) would be Friday during the day up until 3pm, or Friday night at 10 or 11pm. I don't know what the network reception will be like at our retreat (should be okay), but if it works out then you could try to call on Sunday from early morning up until 3pm. You can send me a text asap when you decide on a time, that way I am ready to receive a call (best way to make it happen). Hope to talk to you guys this weekend then! -Cherie
Hey Cherie,
Apologies for the lack of a call. We actually ended up not really having any cell coverage where we were. Our retreat was amazing! I am SUPER EXCITED for next year. I'm going to try to call you this week if possible to talk about next year.
