Chris' Blog - 9th May




The Trip – 9 May 28 /47

This morning we went to the conference and after trying to miss the district business session (which went 1.5 hours over time), we enjoyed a number of sessions about different projects in the district (some of which we had seen or will be seeing). Lunch was at the conference centre and after that we and the Canadian team took the opportunity, while the conference again worked through district business, to visit the shopping centre across the road from the conference centre. One of the highlights was for us to play ten pin bowling. Jodie was the victor, although some of us were late so had fill in bowlers until we joined them.

After this we returned to our lodge, and prepared for the carnival, (really it was just a bit outside BBQ / Broil). However after much eating, including our favorite maize and Impala, (which we saw at the conference centre every morning, we participated in some auctions (I ended up with a Rotary shirt for 100,000 ZK), we danced the night away, with Aussies dancing with Canadian’s USA’s, Malawi’s, Mozambique’s, Zimbabweans and of course Zambians. (Greg even danced with the DG’s Ann (wife).

After the Carnival we hit the sack as Saturday was our big day!!
