So I’m just going to post a few pictures of things that I have been doing while I’ve been out and about in Zambia these past couple of months. The first are photos from my travels up north during the training I went to in the Copperbelt – we visited this Chimpanzee orphanage camp called Chimfunshi (www.chimfunshi.org.za).

The next group is from a “kitchen party” I went to over the Christmas holiday in Mongu. A kitchen party is sort of like a bachelorette party for a woman who is preparing to get married here in Zambia. They have all kinds of traditional ceremonies which take place during a typical kitchen party but the overall theme is to prepare a woman for her wedding and share information (only women come to this party) about how to take care of her husband (and you also give gifts to the bride-to-be). I was invited to this particular kitchen party by a friend from Mongu sort of by chance (without knowing what I was getting into)…it was fun. There was a lot of dancing. Lots.

The last photos are from my recent work retreat where we went to Siavonga which is located on Lake Kariba (which borders Zambia and Zimbabwe). It was quite beautiful. Hot and humid but beautiful. On the last afternoon we took a boat cruise and were hoping to see some hippos. We didn’t but we still had a good time.

And you can now get to all of my photos anytime by clicking on the link which says My Photo Album on the right over there. It should be working.
Enjoy!
