The week-long workshop on Appropriate Technologies has started at the Peace Corps house. I’m taking pictures but since there is going to be five days I’ll make one story at the end, so as not to get too many duplicates…is the plan anyway.
I went into town with Mindy in The Cruiser to get some supplies for the seminar. Solwezi is a regular metropolis compared to Serenje and you can tell by the dust and the smoke, no stars for me at night.
Add to this dust and smoke 16 people smoking cigarettes (it’s like an AA meeting around the house with all the coffee and cigarettes, except for the beer, what with all that beer…in that way it’s not like an AA meeting) and the air has changed properties from a gas to a solid.
