This is me in my apartment at the guesthouse, packing my locally-made metal trunks for Sudan. They're strong and durable and will keep moisture and creatures out of my stuff in my mud hut. Thursday was an EXHAUSTING day of running around to 3 massive department stores to finish buying all of the supplies I need for Sudan. Then that evening I packed my trunks up and the next day our SIM Sudan office manager Peter came and picked them (and Grace's trunks) up along with our bicycles and charcoal braziers. On Monday, we'll be sending them on ahead of us by truck to a town in the north of Kenya, which will be a lot cheaper than paying excess baggage for them on our flight there next Sunday. From there we'll be flying up into Sudan on Tuesday, July 24th on a mission aircraft--the big day for me! I'm very excited about my charcoal brazier, which I'll be using to cook. The top picture is a close up of it--the inside is clay and it has a grill over the top. And there's a close-up of one of my metal trunks. Don't worry--the pictures will get better! I just haven't had much chance to take any!
