It's the Final Countdown

Okay so sorry I haven't posted in a while. One night this week the security gaurd at Manyangana has thieves break in with guns and steal the computers from the lab by breaking the windows and pulling the metal bars out so we haven't had internet all week. The security gaurd went and got Elvis, the principal and Elvis chased them in his car. When the thieves noticed they were being followed they ditched the truck w. all the CPUs in the back and took off into the bush. So, Elvis stayed with the computers and the police followed the men into the bush and caught them. Craziness right!??! Elvis is like the batman of Utah.

Besides that excitement we went to the Zipline in Hazyview at the beginning of the week which was soooo much fun. It's the longest zipline in all of Africa, 1.2 km. That's pretty far but not nearly as far as the 12 km that Nowell and I have been running to the Gowrie Gate of Sabi Sand this week. It's by far the biggest achievement of the trip haha. I've also been teaching computers at the primary school and English class to the 8th graders at Manyangana.

The soccer tournament is coming together sooo well. The community memebers on the coordinating committee are awesome and get like all the work done. Angie(my recruit from Utah) might be my favorite person in the whole world, she always tells me exactly what she thinks about absolutely anything; so her own woman. Coke is coming out for the second day of the tournament so that was a major sponsorship score. They are bringing this huge truck that rolls out into a dance floor and has a huge sound system.

The Final Countdown: 14 days!
