Ondwanga to Oshidute

Last night we hung out with some volunteers in Ondwanga and stayed at a guy named Paul's house. It was nice: its hot and desert-like here, but beautiful. We are in Owomboland, so most of the people here are from the Owombo tribe. There are a lot of traditional homesteads here, with small round mud houses and lots of goats running around. This morning we headed northeast and will soon arrive in a small village called Oshidute, really close to the Angolan border. We're going to have a halloween party with about 15 other volunteers deep in the village! We all have costumes, so I think it will be a riot...

I want to see photos of swanky African Halloween costumes deep in the village! What were you?!

I thought you'd be excited that Mike and I are going to be in the crowd at the Obama rally in the park here in Chicago tomorrow night, hopefully screaming our lungs out at his victory. We'll cheer on your behalf as well!
The tickets went within 15 min, and we were lucky enough to get them!
Glad to see all's well.
GO OBAMA!
