Made it

Hello everyone!

I made it to Zambia alive. I'm in Lusaka now - it's pretty rad. Today we rode the minibusses all around because they kept misdirecting us as to where they were headed. Now we are at an American style mall to exchange money and use the internet. We might try to visit Carrie's homestay family later.

The flight was so long! But luckily I had some people to talk to most of the way. The guesthouse we are staying at is hilarious. They only have water at completely random intervals. They only serve chinese food, but the noodles they usually import haven't been coming in so their choice of dishes is limited. They have a neat courtyard with dogs and a banana, orange, and papaya tree. Zambian plants are very beautiful and Lusaka is poor yet vibrant.

That's all for now!
