Hey home,

Hows everything going with you all there? Savannah life is still gorgeous. Inter-branch sports where held in moco-moco. (regional finals) 30 minutes away from lethem.

Other teachers asked the HM if we could go, but ofcourse that ment that the HM gave us one more assignment. we had to complete and hand in all our paperwork from the last 8 weeks. termly schemes, daily notes and weekly records. amazing how hard everyone suddenly was working to get the friday off.

in the end everyone did there work and we were allowed to go to the sports. sterday we where supposed to be pich=ked up at 10AM by a soldier to take us down there. at 12 the pick-up truck showed up, ye carribean feelings make everything go slow.

we crossed with 7 people in the back of the pickup over thesavannah, looked absolutely amazing. cal nearly fell off twice but i was able to hold on with one hand and take some pictures with the other (see facebook).

the sports itself was nothing much, was hoping to see alex/gary and sam/dave, alex and gary where there but as officials so they didnt have much time to speak to us. Sam and Dave (aishalton vols) where too far they where not here. was fun to see our kids run and win, but i looked more at the dog/cow that walked on the track.

at 1700 we tried to leavebut our car left with another load of pople first. at 1800 the car came back, driver got out and went for a drink. (didnt see him back). around 1920 we left with another car (13 people in it this time). But again amazing views of savannah at starlight.
stars look amazing here everyday, but its too hard to take pictures from milkeyway-light :P

couple of nights ago it was really cols thought, 20 degrees XD
was weird to feel cold when you know its still hot compared to home.

The rest of the time im mostly liming or teaching so thats all for now. pictures are at facebook for those interested. cya
