Kate receives award!!!!!!


Well, today was a banner day for the Eckerle clan. Kate received an award today at school for...."Settling into life in 1A with a wonderful smile and happy nature." The Headmaster informed me that they don't give these awards out to anyone. It is a very limited group. We are so proud.

Check out a brief clip of the ceremony, plus Jude and Franny walking a bit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zhKkCJuAxg

Nothing to else to report except that it is cloudy and windy for the first time since we've been here. It 's a nice change of pace from the sun constantly beating down on you. Tonight is social night for the ex-pat community. At a great bar "The Bull and Bush"there is trivia night. Michelle and I are an essetial part to our group. We seem to specialize in the categories of"pointless information" and "classic rock." Basically you have a team, they ask you a series of 20 questions, you answer them, the more you get , the better your score. The highest score at the end of the night wins.
Michelle travels to a village today for work, I believe it is called Lobatse. We are still awaiting our car, now they say we should get it next Thursday or Friday.
The sun just broke through the clouds.
