This week, Fr. Donnie, Stephanie and I made a surprise trip to Mwanza. Fr. Donnie had to a few errands to take care of, so he invited us to travel with him. Although we spent most of our time in the car, here are a few highlights:
-Dining on Lake Victoria: Fr. Donnie took us to this restaurant that sits right on the water. I ordered a steak and it was AWESOME!
-Web Chat with Weymouth High: This was pretty cool. We connected with Ms. Curran’s class for a video chat. The students had a lot of good questions. Feel free to contact us if you’d like to try and set something up...Why aren’t we charging for this??
-$55 USD on Candy: The title says it all. Stephanie and I found this store called the “U-Turn” that had an entire room filled with chocolate! In a moment of weakness, we grabbed as much candy as possible and ended up dropping an egregious amount of money. We’re currently hiding the stash in an undisclosed location back in the village…pretty much like the scene in Heavyweights!
-Street Court: Speaking of movies and TV, we found the greatest show of all time on one of the satellite. From what we’ve been able to piece together, the basic premise of “Street Court” is as follows: This dude from the NYC/ NJ area, “Judge Mazz”, finds people who are fighting on the street and offers his input on how the conflict should be resolved. I’m really not doing you any justice by explaining it, so I’ll just post an episode of it on my facebook.
*P.S. This just in: African babies freak out whenever they see white people. Thus, we’ve decided to start keeping track of how many babies cry at our very sight…So far the we’re at 12…Stay tuned for updates!
