Guess who just called me on my foreign phone... JAMAL! He was in a bus station and it was very loud but I literally screamed when I heard his voice! They are all doing well - healthy and amazed and HOT but great - so exciting! The other teams are doing well - some heat, some sickness but nothing major. Our camp is going well - I was called down to the principal's office expecting to be reprimanded and he told us we are the nicest foreign teachers he has ever met - that's a good sign! The teachers are HOT and tired but are getting along well with the students - the pace is fast but we know our time is limited so we want to do a good job! Tonight is the famous birthday party which starts out as an innocent games of musical chairs & ends as a monstrous cake fight! Our hosts are afraid we are not eating enough (duh...) so last night they appreared at our door with weird asceptic lukewarm milk and WONDERFUL bread- we all called it manna- quite a gift! Lift us up as we deal with the pigs and the heat and the constant noise & chaos and look for open doors. Well, I have a keyboard with letters this time but I had to remove a small boy who is standing at my shoulder as I type so I better let him back to his video game! Hugs to all, Cindy
