10 June 2011
Very, Very cold today and very, very windy - at least not cold enough to snow.  We spend all morning with 12 Elders getting their passport pictures and papers filled out for Swazi Immigration, it took all morning.  Our electricity was out almost all day, we had to eat out for breakfast and lunch.  At least it is back on for the evening, we just need to get our house warm enough to live in.  I really don't know how these African people just seem to get along with the cold, no heat, they cook outside over open fires, sleep on dirt floors and sit on a reed mat on a dirt floor.  Today I really appreciate being born in the USA and all the conveniences we have, especially warm houses, good electric company and good gas company.  This is a picture of our stormy, windy day.

  1. Beautiful picture...we were lucky to be in Swaziland in Feb and March so it was pretty nice. We were also lucky enough not to have the power go out for hours. Glad you are surviving.
