I'm a local!

This weekend was pretty lazy. Our entertainment on Friday night was attempting to pop microwave on the stove, because we don’t have a microwave. It actually worked really well, which was a nice surprise. Then today my entertainment was straightening the hair of one of the women who works for us. Hopefully that gives you some idea of how little there is to do here. I’m not complaining though, because we definitely find our own little joys in life.

For example, today Bryony and I went up to the school to use the internet. Now, to preface this story, there are about 4 different buses that run through town every day, coming and going from the two towns closest to us, which are about 3 hours away. There are no regular city buses that run through our town, because it’s way to small for mass transportation. So, as Bryony and I were walking back from the school, one of the bus drivers recognized us and asked if we wanted a lift home. We’re locals! They recognized us! It was pretty exciting. Like I said, we take joy in the little things.
