Zambia 2012: A Lovely Saturday
http://laetezambianadventure.blogspot.com/2012/05/lovely-saturday.html
Saturday, May 5, 2012. Today was a very full, relaxing day. I went for a nice long run this morning and then Rachel and I hung out at the guest house and watched TV while working on tedious stuff on our computers. We watched a couple of excellent shows on TLC and E! And were very productive. Later in the afternoon, we walked with Dee to meet her friend Vincent. He’s a very nice, intelligent man. Then we went over to campus to watch some kickball and follow Dave around as he hunted monkeys. Picture Window...

Zambia 2012: Balloons
http://laetezambianadventure.blogspot.com/2012/05/balloons.html
Wednesday, May 2, 2012. This morning when we got to tutoring, our boys were already there with everything set up for us. How sweet is that? I tutored Given, Stone, and Obey. I told the boys we were leaving on May 17th, and Given said to me, “But you’re coming back, right? I started crying when I had to tell him that no, this time when we left, we weren’t coming back. The fact that Given said this in perfect English when he couldn’t even write his own name three months ago made me cry even more. Therefore...

Zambia 2012: A Little Trip to Kaunda Square
http://laetezambianadventure.blogspot.com/2012/05/little-trip-to-kaunda-square.html
Friday, May 4, 2012. A Little Trip to Kaunda Square. This morning was a little sad – no power, which meant no shower and no coffee. The shower thing was fine, but not having coffee is a bit of a problem for me, so I ran over to Dave and Dee’s house and microwaved some water quick. I had Given, Obey, Daliso, and Gertrude. Daliso and Gertrude liked all the worksheets I had for them – there were some synonyms/antonyms sheets, a five senses worksheet, and then for fun, a word search at the end. I thought Rac...

Zambia 2012: Sightseeing in London
http://laetezambianadventure.blogspot.com/2012/05/sightseeing-in-london.html
Friday, May 18, 2012. I think I saw nearly everything there is to see in London today. We took the tube into downtown and walked all over. Just some of the things I saw include: Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, the London Eye, the London Bridge, the Tower of London, the Tower Bridge, Globe Theater, and about a thousand other cathedrals and monuments. We also walked briefly through the Victoria and Albert museum and the Natural History museum. There was Shrek, Captai...

Zambia 2012: Last Entry
http://laetezambianadventure.blogspot.com/2012/05/last-entry.html
Sunday, May 20, 2012. My African adventure is officially over. When I first heard about this opportunity, my initial reaction was, “Sure, why not? 8221; I wasn’t really nervous about going so far away, nor was I overly excited or enthusiastic about it. I looked forward to it, but I wasn’t expecting the experience to be what it was. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). WELS Kingdom Workers Website. WELS Kingdom Workers Website.

Zambia 2012: Mundane Monday
http://laetezambianadventure.blogspot.com/2012/05/mundane-monday.html
Monday, May 7, 2012. Today was kind of a strange day because the kids were getting ready to go back to school tomorrow. I think they had meetings today at their schools or something, because none of my kids showed up until right at the end of my morning tutoring session. Given and Barnabas came – Barnabas explained that he wouldn’t be around tomorrow so he thought he’d come now – and then Daliso with his little brother wandered in for the last five minutes. We worked on buildings and directions. Keyboard...

Zambia 2012: April 2012
http://laetezambianadventure.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 30, 2012. The End of April Already? I tutored Bertha, Mildred, Given, and Obey. Given and Obey worked mostly on math stuff. Berth and Mildred are still chipping away at “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.”. We had more ladies show up then expected for class, so that was a nice surprise. We reviewed some of our church vocabulary words from last week, played a game that they enjoyed (Bertha said, “My heart! My afternoon tutoring session was Shain and Mirriam. Sunday, April 29, 2012. Pastor Ch...

Zambia 2012: Saying Good-Bye to Anne
http://laetezambianadventure.blogspot.com/2012/05/saying-good-bye-to-anne.html
Wednesday, May 9, 2012. Saying Good-Bye to Anne. This morning for tutoring I had young Barnabas and Given. One of the sheets I did with them was labeling the different colors, which then turned into a game of “I Spy.”. We did some math and reading and then ended up playing an adapted game of Pictionary. I started doing math facts and of course the two boys got really competitive and tried to race each other. Daliso (Rachel’s student) started playing too. It was a fun morning. She is worn out from her rec...

Zambia 2012: Camping in Kafue: Wild dogs, Lions, and 19 Hours of Uncertainty and Helplessness
http://laetezambianadventure.blogspot.com/2012/05/camping-in-kafue-wild-dogs-lions-and-19.html
Saturday, May 12, 2012. Camping in Kafue: Wild dogs, Lions, and 19 Hours of Uncertainty and Helplessness. When I think back to our trips to South Luangwa and Victoria Falls, I feel like they were as close to perfect as possible. Everything ran smoothly and we just had such a wonderful time. After this recent camping trip to Kafue, I’m not leaving with exactly the same feeling. That period of time lasted nineteen hours. But before I talk about that, I’ll start from the beginning. Before entering the park,...
