Groundhog Day
Well, after much sleep the fog has lifted from my head. I feel much better today!
The food is very good - but will be very monotonous I fear. That's ok - at least it's good. :) Not spicy for us - at least not yet.
We got the tour of the World Concern office today and met all the staff. Most speak a little English - and they are very friendly. They have a very large number of people that they have accounts with - their work is so incredible and so important. We did travel out today to visit some ladies with cows - we traveled by Rickshaw (nearly got killed - or at least THOUGHT we would be killed - at least a dozen times) and actually ran into a couple of things we could help with. It's nice to feel useful. :) The fellow we are working with - the livestock officer - is very, very competent. His name is Lawrence - and he is looking after us very well. At one point today we did get separated from him - but only briefly. He was in a different Rickshaw and our driver took a short-cut. That made me a little nervous - but all is well. :) Flexibility!
The strike is off today and tomorrow - will be on Thursday - off Friday - back on Sat and Sun. This is a country wide strike - led by the opposition party. All buildings are closed - as are roads to private travel. It's very common here - so as long as we stay indoors, we'll be fine. No worries. :)
