The Blog Post of all Blog Posts..... (a letter from the bloggers.)

Dear Readers,

Would you like to hear a story? Once upon a time, some people decided to go to Africa. And do you know what? They love it!
The people are amazingly friendly, everyone is happy, the children are adorable, the food is great (the fresh fruit even better than great, might we say, fantastic!), the scenery is breathtakingly green and gorgeous, and...... the internet doesn't work very well.
Sometimes living here is like camping. There isn't always water pressure, sometimes the electricity goes out, and the internet stick doesn't like certain people it seems. Yet, we all don't care. We didn't come to Africa to live like Americans. We came to Africa to help relieve the burdens placed on amazing people, not to worry about our own comfort.
So, while we would like to tell you an amazing story about writing all these fantastic blog posts, putting them on a flash drive, walking twelve miles down a cliff and across a river, only to have the flash drive eaten by hippos (while we miraculously escaped unscathed except for a few black eyes and missing digits...) and for all of this to be the reason we haven't blogged yet this summer, we can't exactly say that. Because it is not true (even though that would be awesome!). The true story is that we have been so busy with our projects, working with others, changing lives and having our lives changed in return to worry about blogging.
The good part is, now we are getting the ball rolling! We are going to start blogging, and catch you up about our many adventures these past two months, and keep you updated about this month's projects.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride!
Sincerely,
Bailey and Alysha
