Wednesday 2 March We get up early and are ready to leave about 8am. It's a peaceful trip to Arusha. We first stop at a big department store and get a few things. Next to the fabric market.

Tuesday 1 March After doing the dishes I hang out washed donated things and put on more loads. It starts to rain after lunch so I'm rushing in and out to bring in and re hang out. Hannah isn't feeling well so I go alone to the school with peniniah. The very loud rain brings the girls close. I'm annoyed when only 6 come to the 2nd lesson!

There is a massive rain down pour and I mop up nearly a full bucket of water coming in under the door. Hannah goes to get a few extra supplies. We have a delicious ...

Saturday 27 February It's a quiet day and I try to rest. Malcolm goes off to church and then up to visit oju's new house in the afternoon. In the evening we go for a walk and after sabbath we visit violet, Mohammad and the girls. We take popcorn and biscuits and play games. The stars are so sparkly when we walk back.
