Last Day in Ndola

November 13, 2011

Today was our last day in Ndola area.  We started our day off by going to Pastor Mukwavi’s Church.  Once again the Church service was uplifting and a great way to start our day.  Jason shared the history of Remembrance Day while Reg and Shelley led the membership in a few songs.

After Church we all mobilized to go to Kitswe (another city) approximately 45 minutes away from Ndola.  The market is known for having great arts and crafts.  Those of us that reached the market enjoyed our shopping time and returned with bracelets, paintings, wooden bowls and much more.

Those that did not shop (Sandra, Shelley and Brian) instead spent the day sitting on the side of the road with one of the vans.  We had all piled into the two vans but as we caravanned to Kitswe the radiator hose blew on one of the vans.  Lucky for the group that stayed with the van a couple of men decided to be good Samaritans and help them out.  One of the men walked off to a friend’s house and returned with the hose off of the friend’s vehicle.  With a little fancy mechanical work they all got the hose hooked up and were able to head back to Ndola after about six hours.

We are all now frantically preparing and organizing for our early departure to Livingstone tomorrow morning.  We could not come all this way without seeing Victoria Falls and going on a Safari.  The next couple of days are full but will be full of new adventures.
