deodorant and peyton... :)

Hey everyone! this week has been a whole lot of fun, with a whole lot of homesickness.... i hear thats normal for how long i have been out, but i will keep working on it... life is super hot here... and i know that it wont cool down at all.. oh well! i better just get used to the heat right??

But this morning we went and biked up the mountain again...

we left at 4 am yet again and made it up to the summit just in time for the sun to rise... (about 5:45) so that was cool! The sun rise is always better from the top of a mountain.. trust me on that one... 

I also found some new deodorant to use... it says Williams on it, so the lady gave me the "williams" discount... it was pretty cool....
i also found a cool kind of soda that i have never seen before... it is a blackberry ginger ale...
it tastes really super similar to the black mountain dew... but it is pretty expensive, so i have only had it the one time... but you can find some of the coolest things for sale here in Africa... i also found an old Peyton Manning jersey... back when he played for the colts... so i had to buy it..... 1.because American football jerseys are pretty rare here and 2.it is peyton manning.. (granted, he did play rather poorly his last couple years) 

I dont really have any cool stories... we have gotten a whole new teaching pool because my new companion said that the old ones werent progressing (they were he is just a..... ummm... special person;) ) so we have been working on that recently... umm... if any of you guys remember the one lady that we were teaching that got really super sick? well, she has recovered... not completely, but she is able to listen to our lessons again... so we have started teaching her again. I also found out that malaria is more common than i thought... i havent gotten it (and i pray that i dont) but we have a recent convert that got it this past week... ive heard it is like the flu back in the US... like most people get it once or twice a year, which is pretty scary.... 

as always, if you have any questions for me, i would love to answer them... but i hope you all have a great week!​
