Back to normal and on the move!
Hello :)
(This was actually written on 26th July but if I add it to my blog on that day it puts the Sun, Smiles and Peter entry before it. Very annoying but by changing the date it goes in the correct order)
I am just driving down the mountain for the last time on our way to Camp Ndarakwai. When I got back to camp the other day it was great to be back with the team... they had done a great job on the old Mamas house building 4 walls in 2 days! I still felt iffy so spent most of that evening in bed. Everyone at camp had to drink the charcoal drink, which was interesting, but it seems to have done the trick :)
I woke up the next day feeling good! :) I managed to eat my breakfast and keep it down followed by lunch! We then went to a local Mamas house to watch how the locals prepare food. We pealed bananas and mixed them with beans, added some bicarbonate of soda... yes bicarbonate of soda and put it on the boil. I didn't try any as I was looking after myself but the group said it was good!
Then the local women got us up dancing! This was great!!! I busted some moves with a local Mama aged 100 and took a selfie with her :)
After this we headed back to camp to chill. It was our R+R day so we played some games, did our packing and then had burgers for tea!! :) I haven't seen that again yet either... things are good!! :)
It pissed it down most of the night which was a pain but I slept really well and feel great this morning! :) Coming down the mountain just now was interesting as the road was treacherous! We had to walk down the first part and then slid down the rest in a mini bus. It is much warmer down here and the mood is good :) We are looking forward to the heat of next camp! :)
All is good, I'm back to 90% health and i'm looking forward to the next few weeks! Love to all at home! :) Bye for now!
