Today’s home visits were Daphne and Catherine. I did not see where Daphne went as you can only get there by walking so there was no need for me to drop them anywhere. Just as well for me as I believe it is a very long walk; upwards! Catherine on the other hand I did. It was also a long trip up a mountain side, but for us we were lucky as there was a track that we could drive up to drop her and Rogers off. It must take over an hour to walk from the main road, at least. But what a walk, sensational views all the way. The locals don’t seem the least bit phased by the views, but for me they are magnificent:
The track we drove on even looks good with the locals carrying all manner of things along:
How could one not love views like this, if everything else we were giving at Akanyijuka was not there, I would feel bad about taking children away from this:
Today we had a new matron start, Stella. She is known to Pamellah and is very nice. She does not speak too much English, but enough for greetings. Looking forward to seeing her more. I just remembered now that I did not get a photo, sorry, will try tomorrow; if I remember of course. We also met with headmaster Rogers to organise getting some people for interviews to replace Prossy as Nursery teacher.
Today, all at Akanyijuka were happy as it was Agnes’ birthday and they always like a little bit of cake at birthday time, or at anytime actually. Photo of the day has to go to the birthday girl of course:
