Another day, another Miskito bite
So yesterday started with a strange dream about being late, followed by waking up almost late. I have never used an alarm here... and I'm not sure anyone does. I never have trouble making it to work for 7 AM with no wake up call. After arriving at work our boss didn't show up. After waiting for a half an hour a friend and I crossed the inlet to Maxixe for some fried pork meat over a fire along with the local beer 2 M. After we visited so friends and hunted some coco nuts , opened them with machetes, and drank their tasty tasty water. After returning back to Inhambane we hunted up some tradition coconut beer and had a few brews....
Today involved a meeting with the head honcho of Ajude. After a group of us walked down to the end of the pier.. and with a little reserch discovered the water is more than deep enough to jump into. So we did... Now here I sit wet and sticky updating my blog!
But now it's time to head home and eat one of the same three meals that have been for supper the last month!

Chickens everywhere....
Today the internet is moving at a reasonable pace! Also there is Firefox so I can spell check this mo fo. Christmas in Mozambique involves lots of ''bread'' like cookies and cake. Ever family makes the exact same kind and gives them to all their friends. .. basically everyone just does a big trade.
Finally some pictures !

So this is the the Casa de Cultura where our group spends alot of it's time. note how there isn't a roof or glass in the windows. This is like most of the buildings in Inhambane.
This is one of the many pathways I pass through on a daily basis... but not the narrowest.
Here we have two of my host brothers. Heldar is the one gutting a raw fish to be eaten later that for supper. Sogrou (sp??) is leaning against the house we live in. to the left is the kitchen...
I have on other brother who I don't have a picture of yet... but I'll get him along with mom and dad.
