Just a short note that we arrived! It was a long journey with a few delays but otherwise uneventful. That's what we like.
We found that we could recognize so many of the places we had experienced in 2006. Malawi's poverty is so evident everywhere. And Africa "is on the move". People everywhere, walking.
For about ten days we have settled in a guest house in Lilongwe while our new home, a one bedroom apartment becomes available. It 'll be great to settle in, although we have a great place in the meantime.
The weather is great, sunshine, heat with a little rain. The rainy season is supposed to happen now but the weather patterns have changed and nothing is for certain anymore.
It is Sunday today and already we have met so many people, first at church, then at lunch. Tomorrow we will be hitting the ground running. We need to prepare for buying commodities, meeting with the partners at their locations, doing training and so much more. This month will fly by!
Till next time!

Thanks for the blog. We will read it regularly, so that we can keep up with what you are doing. We will leave again for Nigeria on 14 January, then on to Tanzania on 1 February. Since we will travel via Jo'berg, we will wave when we fly over Malawi (if we do).
