Busy, busy,busy....
We have been doing all kinds of things the last few days. After resting on Sunday, Monday morning we took down what we had put up for the celebration on Saturday. Tuesday morning we loaded up the truck with everything we need to finish the windmill on Thursday.Then we went to town and did some shopping at the material shops. We all spent some money to help the economy of Tanzania. On Wednesday we went to Manyoni. The President was unveiling a plaque at the new water project that supplies water to the town of Manyoni. Eight wells with electric pumps supply a large tank which then is pumped to Manyoni. Some of us got to shake the hand of the President. His speach to the people was very good and the people responded well, even thogh none of us understood. On the wayhome we stopped at Kintiku and visited with some Sisters. One of the sisters has been here since 1962!!! We had a tour of the village by Fr. Tim. We were followed by 30-40 children, laughing and playing with all of us. On the way home we had a beautiful sunset, yes we took pictures. We got home after 8:00, had dinner and went to bed. Tomorrow we are back to Chihikwi, there should be water flowing!!!!!
