Chicken update

A few people have asked me if I ever got the chickens.  Wednesday, I was able to secure the chickens and actually get 3/4 of what I wanted to get done, done.  It was a lovely day.  Marshall and I did stop twice for a quick fill up while on the run.  Survival breastfeeding as Ian calls it....Of course the chicken guys were special as usual, one of my chickens was 1/2 the size of the other.  I get to approve them before they are killed and I'm quite sure it was not one of the one I had approved.  I add this to my list of things I want to do while here:  Find a good chicken vendor.

We had a nice night last night.  Had dinner with a 3rd year Peace Corps Volunteer and his girlfriend, a teacher at the American School.  They know about 3 American couples with babies that we are going to try to connect with.
