Talked to Kinsey Sun morning here. (It is an 8 hour difference with daylight savings time.)
She is doing good, looking forward to getting her cooking gas for her stove(10-15 days) in normal delivery time by Taxi brousse. Been eating alots of vegetable sandwiches!
Her home is much busier this time. Only 1 block from Indian Ocean, hears the waves even on calm days. This is cyclone season. Very Hot!! and Humid. Road noise, traffic, chickens & turkeys just outside of 1/2 fenced yard.(Someone may have took the other 1/2 for firewood) that's a BIG problem, they are burning everything in Madagascar for fuel,cooking & heat.
No fishing report yet. Only boats spotted are like dugout canoes, not motors. Ocean isn't good for swimming - Sharks...
Taught the 1st time Thurs. 75 high school students in each of the 2 classes. They were pretty impressed that she spoke in malgasy to them and not english. Tues. she will teach high school then middle school.(wasn't suppose to start middle school til after new year), but the middle school students want to start now, so she will teach them 4 times before break.
It is a much bigger town, more tourist so they are accustom to seeing white people. You know how the locals treat the "fudgies". It takes a little time in all cultures.
Phone reception is good. She would love to hear you!
That's all for now, look for new update in a week.
