Namumu said goodbye to two more visitors this week, probably the last two we’ll be seeing for a little while.
Debbie Price and her mother, Cynthia, came to visit us from Wales and stayed in Siavonga for a few weeks. Both put in time working in the surrounding communities as well as at Namumu. At Namumu they organized a number of sporting events for the kids and even stuck things out in the hot afternoon sun to play along with them.
It was nice to have somebody to relate to with the whole sunburn thing. These Zambians just don’t understand.
I didn’t get to spend as much time as I would have liked to with Debbie and Cynthia, but I was around them long enough to know that they are both very kind and very willing to serve, not to mention that they have some of the best accents I’ve ever heard. And they brought me hot sauce, so now we’re friends for life.
I’ve asked them to shoot me an email whenever they get a chance with something that I can post on the blog. So, be on the lookout for another guest posting. It seemed like everyone enjoyed Tom’s a while back, and I’m sure you’ll enjoy the Price’s as well. Especially if you imagine it being said with a Welsh accent…
It’s been fun, Debbie and Cynthia. Have a safe trip back.

Sam,
ReplyDeleteHave you received my package yet? Your mom said it would about 3 months (versus 3 weeks like the post office said!!). That being the case, keep a look out for it.
