Day 9 in Darfur


Today is Friday, which is a day off.  Work weeks here are Sunday through Thursday.  So we went back to Save the Children for brunch.  It was a great breakfast and a fun time.

Later in the day a couple of us went into the office to try to get a few things done, but just about the time I got there my stomach started flipping.  I’ll spare you the details, but I had to return without getting much done and spent most of the rest of the day in bed or in the bathroom.

For a bit I sat out on the porch and was surprised by another Haboob (sand storm).  There’s nothing quite like looking at a blue sky, then looking again and finding it brown.

So you don’t worry, I’m doing fine now.  They say it’s quite normal when people come to Darfur for the first time to have gastro-intestinal problems.
