We made our first trip into the CITY today. We took public transportation downtown. We took bus #24. A local lady who is a friend of the missionaries here took us around and her name was Dorcas.
Dorcas took us to some shops, after a few minutes of wandering around we found our selves making our way up a hidden flight of stairs to a hole in the wall shop that sells fabric. The shop was small and full of women and fabric. The store was filled with stacks and stacks of fabric. We purchased after 30 minutes of complete confusion of what fabric and what woman to buy from.Soon we will have our very own African skirt. Over all very exciting.
After an eventful trip for fabric we found an African dollar store, or what we would call dollar tree. Every thing was 100 shillings equal a little more than one U.S. dollar. Followed by our fantastic lunch at Wimpy Burger. (Laugh). Earlier we saw the sign finding it funny,Vickie decided that we would go for lunch. Not bad.
Our trip ended by taking the #24 bus home to take a wonderful afternoon nap.
Overall the day was good. We learned that this coming weekend we will be going to an orphanage with a small group to help out.
who know what we'll doing tomorrow but we will let you know.
