Farewell C4L
After several requests, here is the promised update. Our lives have been in a constant state of change in the last several months and we find ourselves trying to not get stressed and to really make the most of our wonderful experience here. We finished our work with C4L on August 31st and we are still looking to see what other opportunities are available here in White River or possibly in other parts of Africa. In honor of our last day, we held a braai (pronounced: bry, it means barbeque with coals - no gas grills here) for all of the kitchen and garden staff. They have been great people to get to know and have enriched our time here. We made lots and lots of food – boerwoers, the local sausage specialty with salad and pap (a starch dish made with mealie meal that looks like mashed potatoes) and sheba (a salsa-type of sauce to go on the pap). Our plan was to send all of the leftovers home for their families but it turns out they ate nearly everything. They love to eat meat! After the meal they did a little song and dance for us.
