I have a laptop again! Luckily SIT had a few extra that belong to the program, and they're lending me one for the rest of the semester. I'm very very very happy, especially because we have a paper due on Monday!
Life hasn't been too terribly exciting in Durban, we've been having daily Zulu, community health and field study lectures. Next week, we'll be traveling to different hospitals, NGOs and schools for some primary research time.
This weekend we're going to the Zulu reed dance, where the Zulu king traditionally picks a new bride out of 15,000 virgins. Apparently the king probably won't pick a new one (apparently he already has 10 or so...) but the male Zulu royalty will be making their selections. It should be really interesting, and we're all excited to go.
That's about it for now... I'll update soon after this weekend.
I just figured out how to add pictures, but our internet is kinda slow so I can only do one at a time, but here's a little view of what I woke up to over the weekend in Durban :)
And here I was thinking you were going to be roughing it in South Africa!!!!
