Lusaka

After a long, hot, nine-hour bus ride, which included a two-hour delay due to a flat tire, we arrived in Lusaka, Zambia on Wednesday.

We met our hosts and were treated to a fantastic dinner at a local favorite restaurant (Ask Gina about the pepper steak!)

Today we had a very busy day. Nick and Gina toured a public school, Dan the police station's forensics department and Steve and Melanie chatted with the Managing Editor of the Post for our vocational visits. We gave a lunch presentation and off to visit the Misis compound and St. Lawrence. The highlight of the day, specially for Nick, was getting to meet and then play a game of wheelchair basketball with a local team. More soon!
