hard wiring in the lab

At last the internet connection is more than just a dream. Last Friday wafundi wawili (two technicians) arrived with all their gear and started putting blue wires all around the computer laboratory, office, and administration block in the school. We are hoping that TTCL (Tanzania Telephones) will come with a link to make the connection fairly soon, and then the work will really start; Running a teaching laboratory with internet is quite a different operation to managing one without.

Kevin had several long days of work as they got started. After the travel from Bagamoyo it was a challenge to go straight in to this, as well as baking some amazing bread and getting packed and ready to go to Canada for his son's wedding next week. He travelled from Iringa by bus yesterday and is now in Dar having a day to rest before flying tomorrow. I had a rest day catching up with friends here in Iringa yesterday. Much easier! I'm going back to Kilolo today and will be sorting through my books...

Great news about the internet connection, Anne.

Tell Kevin to give me a shout if there's anything I can do to help from here.
