Short trip to Kisii

So we came into Kisii today for a short trip that turned into a trip from hell...two people threw upon the Matatu, Abby forgot the group credit card, my bank is frozen and won't let me withdrawal money, and the cell phone we borrowed from another girl is locked with an access key...it is not the day to go to kisii! The spring is coming along nicely. We are going soap stone shopping today, but I don't have as much money as I wish I did because I can't access it!!! AH!!! These next few days are crazy busy and we are leaving Monday at like 4 am for Kisumu to meet our safari company(who won't call us back! eek). I did laundry by hand this Sunday..it took two hours! Quite an experience. A small group of us got up on Sunday at 5:30 and trecked the 2 mi to the mountain or "got" in dholuo before sunrise and had the most amazing experience. I took almost a whole roll of film on my big camera! I finished teaching regularly yesterday so that I can help with the spring, bed nets, and participate with all the festivities that we have going on this week. On my way out of the school I almost stepped on a little bat on the ground...really creepy animals. Abby's birthday is on Friday and there is a home Football game on Thursday afternoon from the Lwala Football club that we are all really excited about. We know a lot of the guys on the team, like Japolo and Fred and Omondi and Zach. I don't have a terrible amount of time right now, but I just wanted to drop and line and say hello! Lwala is still somewhere that you cannot pass someone without greeting them, the pineapple is the best in the world, and every sunset and sunrise could be another water color. Oriti for now
