Day 24 (monday)

Where we ended up but weren't scheduled to be there for a couple more weeks.

This little guy was hanging out with us while the warden wasn't.

More friends at the rehab center.

 

Woke up at 6, prepared some water for coffee and made some wheat porridge (used too much salt though, it kind of spilled into the pot), found out Ernest has malaria so Eugene would be around to take me to the place. He got there just before 8 and we left from there. We had to connect several times on different tro tro's but eventually got to our destination (I had a feeling that we weren't headed in the right direction) and it turned out that we went to a vocational rehabilitation center that was on our schedule for later in the program. We decided to try and talk to the warden and see if he would let us talk to him today but he seemed confused by the inquiry. At first he told us no, then he told us that he hadn't any idea what our inquiry was about (suggesting that he hadn't gotten notice of our coming at all) and that it wasn't the right time on our schedule. But he said he would talk to us but he needed to take a shower so we should just sit around for a bit and he would be right with us. Well when he got done, he came out and met with another man and spoke with him for quite sometime...he came back over to us and said he would be right with us but then we saw him get up and we couldn't find him after that so we decided to come home. I didn't realize that I was still so exhausted from the weekend so I warmed up some food and took a nap. I'm not feeling the best today and found out that the place we need to go this week is actually an hour and a half away so it will be very exhausting so i'm hoping we can finish with everything we need by tomorrow. I came to campus for a bit to use an internet cafe and get out of the house and withdrew some money too, now i'm just updating the blog but the service is a bit slow so uploading the pictures has been taking a long time. Was fortunate to run into Eugene when I got to campus so he just showed me where everything was. He also came with me back home because it can start to become a little unsafe at night...very thankful. I took some time settling down and unwinding and then had some food, took a shower and was glad to call it a night, especially knowing that tomorrow would be a long one.
