Alls well

Hello everyone!!! Long time no post huh. Things here are fantastic. It is super hard to imagine that I only have 6 more months here. The idea of prolonging it is playing around in my head but not sure how it will play out as of yet. But for now I am enjoying life plenty. The staff at my clinic has changed and the new people are amazing and great to work with. I wish that I was just starting out so that I would have 2 years to work with them instead of the next 6 months. The country director for Zambia came up a few weekends ago, she's been trying to visit all the areas. It was great having her visit. I definitly very supported by peace corps because of her visit. That was something that had been lacking with previous country directors, but the new CD is amazing and really getting things turned around. It was a great site visit too. Some other volunteers in my district came up with her and I biked to the source of the Zambezi to meet with them, then it was back to my house to unload some things, then we all went out to the rapids/hydro that's in my area. Then it was back again to my house for an amazing dinner cooked by my family, then a friend of mine working at a reserve this side got permission for us to camp out there. So we were able to all camp out on the reserve that night. It was awesome! Then the next morning we went on a small game drive. Everyone had a blast so I was in turn very very happy! Don't worry they don't have any of the big 5, but they do have all of the tiny 10. There is actually something called the tiny 10. I've learned a lot more about the sport of hunting now. It's intense as is birding. But anyways, that's my life now, I am in Solwezi for a meeting should be here a few days and then it's back up to site proably until thanksgiving, so take care and know that I love you all and miss you lots and lots and lots, vic
