Today, we went to the wedding of one of the girls from the
village. Other than driving the minibus into a well on the way, it was a quiet
journey to the church! It was such a fun day and the celebrations were so
natural. The local Baptists do not drink or dance so the wedding was celebrated
by a massive feast with a bit of a talent show too. All the guests sang songs
and played music for the bride and groom. The feast itself went on for about 4
hours and all the local ladies had helped to prepare it. Food was cooked
outside the church on an open fire and it all tasted great!
A couple on our second team drove from the UK in their
campervan- what an adventure! ‘Elvis’ their Eldis motorhome made it no trouble
at all and they were able to bring plenty of aid all the way from home.
