Above is a picture of a beautiful resort just down the road from Mangochi. (I visited this one for about ½ hour while Sibale was in a meeting nearby.) It is one of many around. This one costs about $100 a night and has a pool, bar, restaurant, etc. I plan on vacationing there some weekends. The resorts aren’t separated from the villages at all, and as I walked along the beach several young Malawian kids grab your hands and shout & laugh. It is very cute, but sad at the same time, since they say Ndalama, ndalama! (money, money!) To which I say Pepani. (sorry.) But this blog entry shouldn’t depress you, it should make you want to come visit!! Lots of great spots to relax as well as volunteer.

Hi Conor - reading your blog with much interest. Certainly sounds challenging with wonderful rewards. I am sure you are anxious to get school started, as they are to have you teach. You will do fine and keep the posts coming when you can. The desks look terrific too. Uncle George
