A bunch of us volunteers got together in Gobabis to celebrate Thanksgiving the Saturday after you all did. It was a nice time of food and friends. We didn’t have turkey, but the chicken... and everything else... was just as delicious. Still, we were thinking of and missing you all.
It's hard to explain just how much we volunteers (I think I speak for all of us!) value spending time with other volunteers when the occasion arises. It's just that it's such a relief to be around other Americans who get "it" ("it" perhaps being both American culture and Namibian culture). Therefore, I'd say one of our favorite pastimes tends to be a lot of story-telling... and in fact, it can be hard to talk about anything but our mind-blowing experiences!
It's really nice that you have other Americans you can get together and spend time/compare notes with. Looks like you had a pretty substantial feast! Any special plans for Christmas/New Year's?
