Jambo! I finally made it to Zanzibar and Jambiani AND more importantly I now know what the term "Africa hot" means! I think I've lost my body weight in sweat over the past day and bicycling in the hot sun from school to school doesn't help....but the other volunteers tell me I'll get used to it.
Yesterday, we taught at a preschool and the kids were facinated by my sunglasses and arm hair. They all love sitting next to the volunteers and love running up and jumping all over you. They are adorable and full of energy....which is tough when you're on the verge of heat stroke. We painted part of the high school in the afternoon and my painting skills leave much to be desired. The paint dries very quickly in the hot sun...unfortunately, I think more paint was on my body than the school.
