From July, 11, 2011:
Well for a weekly recap, my bike had some problems and was being fixed Monday through Saturday resulting in Elder Moses and I doing a lot of walking. The positive about walking is the ability to talk to Elder Moses more. Aside from that walking isn't much fun, it's more hot to walk around than it is to bike and we don't get the chance to be as productive as we would be on bike.
On Tuesday I turned 20. it was an interesting feeling being here on my birthday. I spent some time thinking what it would be like to be at home for it. It was a good day.
Friday when we were walking a crazy man came up and walked beside us for several minutes mumbling. There seems to be certain defects common here such as lazy eye, bow legs, and mad people. I don't know if it is hereditary or some other answer.
Saturday as I mentioned before we picked up my bike from being repaired. in the evening the ward mission leader, Abraham had told us (Elder Acquah, Mutuku, Moses, and I) about a dinner he would be feeding us with the help of a few other members. When we arrived there were just the three people helping cook, but after some small time we were joined by other members eating rice balls, ebba (ground casava in a sticky ball form when combined with water) and some ground nut (peanut butter) soup complimented with fish. we enjoyed the meal, ate fruit, and socialized with the other people there creating a feeling of just being at a party socializing with each other.
Sunday it rained and the apartment enjoyed its usual nightly conversations.
