Blog 8-6-2010 Friday!
We were up early with luggage out by 5:30 and breakfast. We left 6:30 – and didn’t arrive at our first stop Sokoine Agricultural University until 12:30….It taxed our stamina!!
At the University we met with two professors who described ICE…Institute of Continuing Education. Carl had brought soil samples from Lupembe and Carl’s hope is to get results soon. It seems to provide CAD with possible information and cooperation for our project.
Next it was off to Morogoro Lutheran Junior Seminary. Pr. Isaac Chengula teaches there and met us. We had our lunch there at the Swahili Language College. Many non-natives come there to learn Swahili.
We next rode into Dar….about rush hour…although it seemed pretty “usual” but there were multiple times we were stopped dead-still. Antwon did an amazing job…then as we got closer to TEC and our lodgings, the road was closed so he managed the bus and got us here!
Pr. Seth has identified our group as youth, couples, and seniors! This time the seniors have the 4th floor sans elevator so there was lots of huffing and puffing in the Dar heat and humidity.
We met in Jan and Dawn’s room which has a chapel-like area for a group meeting and devotions. We’re ready for bed!
