Macintosh you've let me down...

Hey all I'm here safe and sound but having much less time to spend on this post than I had hoped. Turns out that the internet in Tanzania doesn't work on macs. what?!?!? I know. So i'm in town now (a 40 minute trip from the base) at an internet cafe... don't think I'll be able to do that too often.

I'm trying to keep this short because someone is waiting for me to go back but I just wanted to check in and let you know I'm here and alive. the first few days have been pretty rough. I've never really had jetlag before but this eleven hour time difference thing is killing me. I've been kinda sick and tired and blech but am starting to feel better today.

I will meet with the woman who is running the english school on monday to talk about what my job will be. It's been kind of rough emotionally I think its just all the new sights and sounds and everything, pretty overwhelming and there is definitely a sense of dependence on other people that I am not at all accustomed to. So, lessons to be learned...I'll be honest there are moments where I wonder what on earth I was thinking and I just want to get back on that bus to get back on that plane to get back on that other plane etc. but then I remember that God opened up this door for me and that in my weakness he is strongest.

I'll try to post maybe once a week we'll see what I can work out. It's not what I had expected but hey it's six months we'll be ok....
