nearly home.

Well, I'll be back on Saturday morning, hopefully to some dry weather.

I did some maths training at a local primary school tody but the rain was coming down by the bucketfull. That wasn't a problem, I had my raincoat and umbrella, it was the flooding in the road. It turned it into a river and the only thing to do as to hitch up my skirt and wade ankle deep through the red muddy torrent. The nice thing is that you dry out quite quickly and the rain is warm.

We have been to the beach several times this week in the evening and I have been wave jumping again with Kofi and another little three year old boy who was convinced he could swim.

I do hope the weather is kind for the journey across the estuary to the airport on Friday evening. It takes half an hour on the open water and won't be fun if we have another of those violent storms tat keep coming and going.

I'm looking forward to coming home and seeing everyonebut will miss it here again.

Signing off, Pat
