A relaxing weekend

caddy william and I 
After such a busy week, this weekend has been very relaxing and the weather couldntbe any better.  Saturday comprised of President moffat once again taking me to the Vanilla Bread restaurant for cappuccinos and lunch.  Kevin, who runs an NGO for an elementary school, picked me up from the restaurant and we cruised over to the Ndola Golf Course.  Golfing was a wonderful experience and the first non-work fun event I have done on the trip.  Kevin just walked while I played because he is too tall for any of the rentals.  Fortunately moffat was given old Ben Hogans as a gift from a person back in the states (Pasadena actual).  Because there are mostly European standards out here... I had to have a caddy as a walked nine holes.  The course was in okay shape, but it was quite challenging because there were historic ant hills all around the course which were unforgiving.  


Today (Sunday) was quite a relaxing day.  moffat and I went to Baptist Church for the morning service.  Church here involves a lot more signing and praying which makes it quite more spiritual and worthwhile.  After church, moffat took me back to his house (which is so beautiful) where we had a amazing brunch cooked by his wife Doreen and then we lounged out by his garden under the wonderful sun and his new kittens.  It has been an interesting experience living on my own in the guest flat this past weekend, but I am quite proud of myself to not be spooked out being alone at the school.  I hope I can keep it up!


TIA
