Day 5- The Rains are Coming!!

I cannot wait! There have been clouds covering the sky all morning. Last night was hot! But the wind arrived this morning around 7-8am and I felt like a new person. It is beautiful and cool out. It's so much easier to be happy when it's cool out. I taught my first ballet class this morning to the children at the school, and another one for adults at 5pm. Now we hear it's raining in Lusaka. They say when the first rain comes that these flying ants rain down from the sky like the plague. The locals get time off work that day to collect the bugs, and fry them and eat them! I'm not sure if I really want to be around for this, but it may happen any day now. Took my first shower today since Lusaka! Tired now and ready for bed. Just living here is exhausting. But very special somehow.
