Who would have thought that Dave and I would be living and working in sub-SaharanAfrica?Who would have thought that we would be sleeping in a bed of questionable quality, with a pink fleecy blanket with a big picture of Barbie on it?Who would have thought that in such a hot country, the water could feel soooo cold?Who would have thought that I, the night owl, was going to bed as early as 8:30 and getting up at 6? Who would have thought that mud could be a slippery as ice?Who would have thought that you could hold a conference for over 300 people with no toilet facilities?Who would have thought that you can do off road without going off the road? Who would have thought that there still existed trains where the toilet, with it shiny stainless steel seat, reveals a hole straight through to the tracks when flushed?Who would have thought that at 58, Dave would be learning to ride a motor bike?Who would have thought that putting a flashlight/torch on the end of a cell/mobile phone would be such a great idea?Who would have thought that after only 7 months, our stay would be cut short….
